National Parks slide show
I finally finished compiling the photos from our trip to Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Grand Canyon National Parks in June. Here it is – a 12+ minute show. (I’ve embedded it here for convenience, but it looks like the resolution is better, especially in full-screen mode, if you go directly to the Vimeo site. Click the icon that looks like four outward-facing arrows to get the full-screen image.)
I took the photos (with perhaps one or two exceptions) with the Canon EOS 7D. I did the editing with Pinnacle Studio 14 Ultimate, aided by Image Cropper – a nice shareware utility for cropping 4:3 images to 16:9 size. This was a good introduction to video editing. The number of decisions involved was nearly overwhelming, and I could easily have spent the rest of the year tweaking and improving it. But you’ve got to stop somewhere.
I hope you enjoy it and that it makes you want to visit these wonderful parks.
