Fave Photos - Two Speed Showcase Sequences
Apart from camping, reading and keeping fit, I also do some photography. I am self taught and have learned a lot over the years.
Here is a little showcase of some of my favorite pics taken over a few years using various Nikon cameras.
The music is "Jeanie and Caroline" by Retrigger who I found on jamendo.com many years ago now. Used under original CC license. Edited in CapCut.
BTW, if you don't like this video and want to give it a thumbs down, at least let me know why so I can improve my work in future, otherwise your dislike has no value to me.

    So Humble. Just so refreshing watching someone without the emphasis on " Look At Me " , yet enjoyable watch. Thanks to God that You taking appropriate measures to recover that seem to be working. All that hard work , like riding against the wind , yet accepting it as not an obstacle , but as useful is great to see.

      @@mohammednovalija In my opinion art shouldn't need to be understood, for the most part. I think real art should instantly grab you and emote you in some way, and for some people it's easier for some types of art and some types of "modern art" is just utter bullshit and there are people who just pretend think they understand it just to be better that another person who can't grasp the concept. As for those women you mention, it's a photographer or painter's objective (often) to bring out the beauty, even if that beauty might be more than just physical. Sometimes you can see, even feel, certain traits in a person that make them beautiful; like their compassion, or kindness, or humbleness. And of course, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

    Okay at first I wanted to hate it, cause I didn't feel this belonged on YT, (you need to seriously make this not available to children). But in all honesty; good job. I see your passion, I see your care. I feel like there's too much going on in the wider shots where the focus isn't directly the scenery; maybe some aperture will help direct the eyes? I'm not at all a photographer, just my own amateur opinion. I'd give the whole shoot about a 8.5/10 simply from a viewers perspective ❤

      The only reason I decided it was okay to upload this is because it was able to be age-restricted, so in theory kids wouldn’t see it. And let’s be realistic, it’s quite tame to what is more readily accessible. This was very early in my portrait work, so I was still learning, so I don’t disagree with what you’re saying, but also will point out that photography, well any art really, is totally subjective. I just wanted to share my work so I appreciate you watching. Thank you.

      I usually hit the heavy bag for up to an hour. My cardio fitness is pretty good. I may breathe hard but I recover quick. Let me tell you a little secret; I actually have a rare heart condition where all my arteries extend from one half of my heart. The result is, when I’m working harder, the arteries push against each other and restrict the flow a little so oxygen doesn’t get around as good as it could. I’m okay, but just means I have to draw deeper breaths. And talking while being energetic is extra work on my lungs, but I make do. Thx for watching.

    At least once in My Life , I hurt my shoulder from simply skipping a stone across a pond. And I now fear throwing stuff as it takes ages to get better. Something to ponder. It's not the fall that kills people , it's the sudden stop at the end. The heavy bag , great cardio , but just wonder if it is hindering or helping your current situation. Painkillers to help you sleep sounds good , but not to hide the pain so that you could overuse and worsen a damaged area. I used to enjoy the next day pain of working muscles that ain't been used for ages. But NOT the pain of damaged calves from pulled muscles. I wish you success in discovering the cause of your prolonged what sound like injuries.

Some people might say I talk a lot, others might say I “gloss over” things, but one thing I don’t do is discuss stuff I don’t know anything about, so I keep to what I know, or perhaps I might be able to find out later and make a notation. In this case I said all I could and there was nothing to add later. My “furnishings” are mostly old stuff and I only added that info this time in case someone was curious. There are enough reviews out there for products, so I didn’t want to do that myself. I found that power station through reviews, so no need for me to add my two cents worth. The omitted footage is literally me just prattling on about the mundane, which I do enough in the video already, so no need to bore viewers any more than I have to. As for subscribers, well, to be honest, I’m not really concerned whether people follow, like or subscribe to me or not. I just like making the videos and maybe being a little entertaining. Plus it’s an activity that helps me get through the day, and if it benefits anyone’s life, that’s a bonus. To me, talking to the camera is like talking to someone; it’s cathartic.

    Riding on the edge. I could probably ride those tracks in my mind , but in the Real World I am a coward and way too concerned about hurting myself.

    You are amazing. For the minute , You are my role model. I'm gonna listen to all your stuff and maybe get out of my unfulfilling Life and see it for what it really is - NOT THAT BAD. Falling over or baulking at the slightest obstacle and then getting emotional is not the answer. I notice you read books. Have you 1 or 2 books that are practical that inspired you to move from a depressive state to a more satisfying lifestyle ? I read a bunch of self help books and articles but rarely go further than just reading. I think maybe a Partner to Love and to Love me back is what is missing from My Life. OR NOT. For now I will peruse your tapes and see what else you have in your Library. Thank You for sharing your genuine need to assist others in the way you do.

      I don’t have any self help books to recommend sorry. I did read and for many years live by “How to win friends and influence people” by Dale Carnegie, but it doesn’t really work as well in today’s “woke” society, which I learned the hard way. Anyway, I just try to be the best person for myself. I’m no expert in relationships, as many can attest to, so all I can say there is just be how you want to be, and hopefully thru life you can make relationships with people who sync with you. Dismiss the fakes and phoneys, don’t try to live up to other people’s expectations or be something you’re not. Find pleasure in small things and don’t allow yourself to be stressed. I wouldn’t say my life is satisfying, but little things can satisfy me to the point I’m distracted from bad thoughts. You have the right to live on this earth like everyone else, so do whatever makes you happy, as long as it doesn’t negatively impact anything/anyone else. There are forums dedicated to such things that you can share your thoughts and experiences on fyi. You might click with someone there also. I somehow have become much less stressed, since I retired due to mental health issues, and where once I was aggravated and upset by any little thing that went wrong, I now often laugh it away and just reattempt what I was doing. I still can get upset and feel like the universe is punishing me, but I’ve gotten better at quelling my emotional reaction. I find punching a heavy bag good medicine lol. Good luck to you. Don’t give up - it just plays into the hands of those who wish you ill will.

      Not sure how I missed your comment, but let me answer. My abs are there and I have a strong core. If I didn’t then my back would be much worse off. As for my tummy, yes, there is a layer of visceral fat there. You need testosterone to break up that fat and as you get older you have less testosterone, but doing compound exercises helps get your larger muscles producing testosterone. That is the hardest and last place to loose fat because there isn’t a lot of blood vessels there and you really need to be very strict on your diet so you “cut up” your physique. I’m not worried about doing that. That bit of tummy fat is fine for me and I have a little on my back as well but little elsewhere. So yeah, it is definitely harder to lose tummy fat as you age, but you can still get a good strong core. Thx for watching. And good luck pushing me in the river. I’m quite nimble with good balance and a few years of scrapping behind me 😂

      Okay, well, actually my Abs are pretty good, but I do have a little layer of fat across them, but I’m not worried about that. I’m not interested in getting “cut” and that does take some extra work and certain eating that I’m not interested in. My main reason for ab work was to help my back condition, which it has alleviated greatly, so I’m glad about that. I’m pretty happy with my fitness and physical health. The main thing, especially at my age, is to be consistently active and no let yourself go to ruin. I could barely do a sit-up when I started, but now I can do many reps of various ab exercises. Having a good strong core is essential. You can do it too. Start small and build up.
