Europe (Paris and Rome)

Europe (Paris and Rome) Tube. Duration : 12.97 Mins.

It's with relunctance I leak a trip vid, because most of the time, watching someone else's travel video is as much fun as wearing your underwear backwards. I hope that won't be the case here. We actually went on this trip intending to take only pictures and not to do a video as we are prone to do. At least as I am prone to do. I can get obsessive with a shot, taking valuable time on the go filming and editing the perfect scene as I see it in my head. So to spare the rest of the crew a series of idiosyncratic events I decided to stick with still pics on my cellphone and journal entries as a record of the days. But my son didn't get that memo, and captured a series of poignant images on his LG Optimus cell phone. Rather than let them collect dust on a memory card in an end table drawer, I thought it best to try to see if we could somehow capture the Spirit of the trip. Recently turned on to and moved by a band called Future of Forestry, I decided to set some of the clips to a selection of their songs. For those of you who know us, and what I love to do, this is a long time coming. I haven't edited anything in quite a while. It's not for lack of love, mind you, but rather lack of time and inspiration. One ...
