India
By Mark Allen
A cacophony of pandemonium; sights, sounds and smells, people and pollution, resulting in a sensory overload. The poverty and rubbish are in sharp contrast to the armed guards at gated hotels, where there is not a single leaf out of place. On the streets; the children, who seem to have nothing, are happy and clean. It's confusing, sometimes most disturbing, but a wonderful place to visit and (for me) a once in a lifetime experience.
Following Barry's advice, I re-visited this show that was V1 in 2015. For some reason, it just didn't work for me. But it now does in V2.

Thailand
By Mark Allen
I had hoped this show could be good enough for a photo-harmony competition, but sadly I just can't get it to flow as well as I'd like. So, it's just a record of a recent trip to Thailand, i hope you like it.

Claire and Wayne's wedding
By Mark Allen
As the father of the bride, I was warned many months in advance, that I was not to spend the day with a camera. So; as a gift to my daughter, I sought out a suitable 'professional wedding photographer' and paid for his services. This took some time, checking out their work and the feedback they had received. I live in Ireland and my daughter was getting married in England. Eventually, I came up with 3 photographers and asked my daughter to choose. To my delight, she chooses the guy I liked best. On the day, he was superb, relaxed, confident and just did his thing in the background.
All I have done in this slideshow is put together some of Andrew's mono work, with appropriate music.

ANDALUCIA
By Lakelandlass
Another visit to Andalucia, this time in February this year, hopeful of catching the almond blossom in full bloom. Alas, after a very mild Spring, most of it had already flowered before we arrived.

Scotland A Brief Moment in Time
Evolutionary time is almost impossible to imagine
The original of this sequence used 3 full screen video clips, but unless it was viewed on a powerful desktop, the video was not smooth enough for my liking. When shown on a moderate Laptop, the video full screen does not work so good. Hence the reduction of the video to insets rather than full screen. In my view the video is a vital part of the whole thing with the music

Rose of Paradise
By Jean-Cyprien
Hi,
As every year, during the Advent's time, the members of the French forum Diapositif.net put each day an AV as an Advent Calendar gift.
Here is my own contribution. Unfortunately, the story is in French. Thank you to excuse me.
Here is the summary :
During all the Middle Ages, the archbishopric of Sens (60 km from my home) was very powerful : it contained 7 bishoprics, of which Paris.
This certainly explains why the Sens Cathedral was so innovative, and is now regarded as the first Gothic Cathedral (XII century) with the St-Denis Abbey.
A transept was added in the end of the XV century. At the south entry (for the bishops) is a big rose window, with Last Judgement details. At the north entry (for the chapter) is a (smaller) big rose window, named The Rose of Paradise.
I tried to describe this magnificent rose in a tale way :
One day, the designer of the rose, still without ideas (as me !!), falls asleep and dreams arriving in the Paradise. There, he sees 33... ? (well, you'll see !) And with the aid of St Cecilia, St Veronica St Étienne St Peter, and a magical mirror (the reflections become real !) he is now able to draw and paint the screen of the rose.
And later, in the middle of a Christmas night... But please, see by yourself !
Merry Christmas to you all, and my best wishes for 2016

Its Just One Minute
I was recently asked to judge an AV competition of just one minute duration and was surprised to see 27 entries. I first thought one minute was a little too tight on time, but after trying it, the one thing it does do is focus the mind on the one minute length

Ever Higher
By chjandre
In March 2015, I traveled to the Sultanate of Oman, including the wonderful exclave of Musadam. Change of scenery guaranteed!
Oman is surely a place to (re-)experience the "Tales of the Arabian Nights". My travel ended in Dubaï: a sudden leap into the 21st century.
This slideshow is my reaction to this brutal change and a feeling of immoderateness.
Remark: the song is in French, but fortunately "New York USA" and "Dubaï UAE" have the same number of feet
