David Porter Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Hi Mark, I guess everybody is too involved with V9 Beta to respond to you A/V. Not that I can add too much but I thought the photography was well up to or exceeding your usual excellent standard making me really want to visit Iceland. The show itself I found a bit bitty jumping from waterfall to mountains and back to waterfalls several times plus the various different techniques in shooting he waterfalls seemed to break the harmony. The dreaded mini-zooms were there again and I guess that is ingrained into your technique and I note more and more people are doing it. I just wish someone would tell me the reasoning behind it as I just find it distracting. I hope you get some more comments and look forward to revised versions.

Almark Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Hi Mick, thanks for your feedback. I take on board your comments about it 'jumping', I'll certainly revisit it with that in mind. (It's only V1) Mini zooms, as you can probably tell, I like them. I try to restrain myself to just 100% to 102%. I think they create just a small sense of movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Beckham Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Have you been back to Iceland for another trip, or are these other images you shot on your last visit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landsberger Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Liked the show being a fan of the Icelandic landscape, almost all the images are superb. I would however prefer to see more fades/dissolves as a break from the snap changes which are a bit repetitious. Regards John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almark Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Hi Barry, first Trip was in 2014, and we only had a car. As a result there where many areas we simply couldn't get to. (BTW, the show I made with the 2014 images is better, IMHO, than this one.) This time we got a 4x4, a Toyota RAV4, which was excellent. It allowed us to get into the interior, which is like a different world (illustrated in this 2016 show). However; to get to some of the remote areas, we would need a 4x4 with a breather to cross the deeper rivers, maybe next time?! I attach an iPhone video just for fun. Thanks John, the snaps are designed to fit with the beat. I have also made a show that uses the same images to a 9 min. electronic version of Speigil im Speigel, just very slow fades. It is amazing how such a different approach to the music and transitions creates a completely different 'feel'. For those interested in the photography, I used a Fuji XT1 with 10-24 lens and a Fuji XT10 with a 55-200 lens. I have been playing with On1 Photo 10 as my main post production software. I don't do any commercial work and the photography is just a hobby. For me part of the fun is playing with the images. IMG_2286.MOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhwarner Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Nicely done, Mark! Amazing waterfalls. I like the subtle zooming. And I loved the bit with the horses. Icelanding horses are so adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
