George, was this really your first vid uploaded to utube, or were there others that have been deleted? I ask because if its the first, it is a GREAT first effort!
Basically, I first started out with a few regular videos and this one, which was technically my 3rd or 4th video, but it was the very first soundtrack video that I ever made that I uploaded. When I made this video, I had only been playing around with Windows Movie Maker for a month or so, and I thought WMM was a big deal back then, lol! I've gotten a lot better with editing and things since then with some of my newer videos, but it's always fun to go back and look at the old work I've done.
Well, I guess you must be a natural then lol. I do hope you don't delete your earlier vids as time moves on. To be able to go back and look at the early days is a good thing for both the creator and the viewer. Yes its easy to say.. wow I really sucked back then, but I think its important to keep the earlier things up because they still are documenting change, something that comes way too quickly in our hobby.
Hope u get your computer issues straightened out.. nothing more irritating eh?
Thanks! Well on average I'd say about 40 in a 24 hour period. However lately, there has been maybe 10 or 12 in a 24 hour period. Much of the reason I'm sure is due in part to the slow economy. If you refer to my Thanksgiving Break Railfanning videos part 1 and 2, you will see what I mean in the descriptions. Shots in this video were mainly taken between Dec 2007 and May 2008, when there was still a decent amount of trains running through daily.
Thanks! Yeah, I like that shot too. That was actually taken on April 2, of this year, during the 5 or 6 days of spring we had because we had a very dry last winter and only got 50% of normal precipitation, so I'm glad I got a few shots of the green while it was still around! Our past April and May was like our usual June and July! That's why I refer to all of California's water going down the drain in #2, because our lake levels are very low, and what's left of it is going down the spillway!
Quite abit of yard shots, haha the dude stole your water
