    hi, thanks for this beautiful monument. I wonder; are there no burial grounds at those churches? In The Netherlands where I live, they are often around or beside a church.

    • @attrell

    At 2:31 the Greek Orthodox Church is in Maryville, just north of St. Helen's Church, not far from the river. Unfortunately Google Maps only allows you to zoom in and the gravel country roads are not named.

    Nice work. I always forget the dolly zoom when flying, adds a nice touch. For the timelapses, do you use photos or sped up video? And how do you get the slow camera motion during the timelapses?

    • @attrell
      @attrell  4 года назад +1

      I use photos and I use a timelapse dolly by dynamic perceptions.

    Why the spooky music? This is a beautiful piece of history that is unfortunately very long forgotten. The faith and strength of our ancestors should be rejoiced and remembered.

    • @attrell
      @attrell  4 года назад +1

      It's sad atmospheric music. The entire video and the soon to be released Forgotten Saskatchewan film is a celebration of our ancestors and the way they joyfully overcame adversity and endured.

      Spooky? It’s not like he was playing Slayer for background music.
