Hidden Sky
On Friday my Grandma and Grandpa came over and visited with us for a little while. I had been wanting to go out to my Mamaw Ruby’s to take some photos. I went home with them and walked back home. As I walked back home I went by the pond in my Mamaw Ruby’s field. I sat on the porch swing and recorded a video journal entry. I then walked up to the church and took a few pictures then walked on home.
By the time I got home I was exhausted, much like I am now after being in the kitchen for four hours, but that’s another story. Anyways, I put this video together with some music that I have been enjoying all week, several of the photos I took and of course the video journal entry I made which I placed in the middle of this video.
I hope you enjoy the music selection I chose. I have been listening to Jamie Sieber all week and absolutely love her music. I purchased the “Hidden Sky” album from Magnatune and thankfully Magnatune allows you to use their music for your productions (make sure you read the license terms before you do) because they are not evil! The track I chose for this video is “Hidden Sky.” You can listen to the entire album on Magnatune for free! If you like it, support the artist and purchase her music.
For the production of this video I used InterVideo WinDVD Creator, which is what I have been using other than the previous video. My trial copy of Sony Vegas Pro 8 expired so I had to go back to what I was using. In the video I mention getting water and I wanted to put that clip up over me real quick. I thought that would have been neat. Oh well. Anyways, I enjoyed this one and hope you will as well. Stay tuned!

Very Nice.
I bought Jami Sieber’s album, “Second Sight”, off Magnatune a couple years ago. She’s a fantastic cello player, her music has a really deep atmosphere to it. You made a perfect choice for your background audio in using her music.
Your photos get better all the time. I LOVED the close-ups of the leaves and grass with the water droplets on them — they’re beautiful. And the creek/pond by the church, is that where Andy Melton takes his dates to go skinny-dipping? (j/k) It’s good to see that you still find something new in your viewfinder every time you take your camera out.

Tim - Thanks, Tim. I love Jami Sieber’s music. I’ve been listening to it on Magnatune for a couple of weeks now. I am really glad I purchased the album that I did. As soon as I can I am going to purchase the other two as well. They are really great.
I am glad you enjoyed the photos as well. The photos were of a pond in my Mamaw Ruby’s field in the field behind (beside) her house. If I were to ever have a date, I don’t think we’d be going skinny dipping there mainly because it’s right beside the road! LOL!
