Put this together last night. A +6 min slideshow featuring various scenes of the extreme freeze here in N. Ireland this December that I had time to capture on camera. Everything from snow, to icicles, to thundersnow. I will probably need to change the sound track.

Your camera must be feeling totally knackered after taking that lot Martin. Not to mention your car!!!  Grin

You have some really lovely scenery over there which I think you've captured beautifully. I love the Robin shots - in particular the one of the Robin posing on the car bonnet. Some really spectacular wide scene & close up shots there, too - and I like the way that you've combined some starry night time images with the scenery as well.

I will probably need to change the sound track.
Personally I very much enjoyed the soundtrack which I thought blended in nicely - especially the widefield scenery images.

Anyway, top job - I shall add it to my YouTube favourites (if that's OK).  Smiley

That's top quality Martin, a most excellent piece of work. Love the music - would be well worth re-rendering in 720p!

Thanks very much Andy and Paul for the feedback on this - I have kept the current soundtrack on it, I listened to many alternatives on youtube and non had the atmospheric feeling that this one has. Next time I will do a larger version as Paul suggested. Cheers all.

Wonderful show,Martin. The close up in the robin is impressive and the photos of Lough Neagh stunning..I liked the music too,it's fine., no need to change it imo.
