[isctony]

[ClickToWalk]

@isctony The original video was 57 minutes long,

[isctony]

@ClickToWalk wow, the sun soon sets!

[ClickToWalk]

@isctony Certainly does at that time of year. Was recorded on 26th, 5 days after the shortest day of the year.

[isctony]

@ClickToWalk Thank you, I lived in Edinburgh for 5 years up to a year ago, going back at the end of this month for a long weekend, I will be sure to take my camera again!

Some day soon I'm a-gonna have lots of money and buy a beautiful place in Scotland and have a beautiful woman to enjoy it with! We'll enjoy holding hands and walking around the grounds and she'll tell me all about the land Scotland. We'll drink plenty of great beer and eat the finest foods and travel in our motor car to see the castles and ruins! She'll be amazed at what a fun guy I am and adore the crap out of me and I'll give her lots of money to go shopping with so she'll always look nice!!

Edinburgh is historical and wonderfully spectacular!! I live here and still appreciate it's splendour. For excellent architecture look no further than Auld Reekie!

[Psgurl90069]

Thanks for sharing! I miss Edinburgh. Most beautiful city!

[Psgurl90069]

Great video. I live in Los Angeles, so I may not be the best person to say this but I've been to Edinburgh a few times and it's a lovely city with lovely people. I would live there (maybe part-time) if I could. Simply beautiful. My fav city along with Paris.

[kboss2011]

why would you want to live somewhere where the sky is two colors, gray and dark gray?

[GLove39]

Edinburgh is quality. Take it from someone who lived there for 22 years and hated it, moved to NZ and now wants to move back 8 years later....I love Embra.

;)

[tuutuutango]

I'm from Texas and was just there for Christmas. Thanks for this video. What software did you use for the time-lapse?

The ferris wheel looked fun (and cold)... Saw the German sales booths in the vendors section. Great and wonderful city that Edinburgh is... Probably my favorite in the world.

[ClickToWalk]

Hi, glad you like the video It was recorded as a Quicktime .mov file on my camera I then used Rad video tools to split the video to jpeg files (1 for each frame) then used Virtualdub to convert the jpegs to Divx avi, dropping frames to get the the required length of video. Thanks to Meltec2 for his advice on this. You should check out his timelapse "Koya Moments" it's a stunning piece of video with a great choice of music to go with it.

[tuutuutango]

Thanks for the info. I hope you saw my comment (below)... I'll check out the "Koya Moments".

Wish I could write this in Spanish, I grew up along the border here in Texas along Mexico, but my Spanish is MUY MAL these days.

Check out my videos on YouTube.

Adios.... TuuTuuTango from Tejas

[1a1a2a3a]

Music would be nice..

[ClickToWalk]

Would have liked to put some music on but I was a novice (and still am) at this type of thing. I will probably have a go at spome point in the future. Any suggestions?

[1a1a2a3a]

well you are the creator... go with something that flows with the video.. I really can't think at the moment.. sorry!!

[brakie1978]

Love how the guy with the "GOLF SALE" sign is there LOL

[tuutuutango]

Hey, send me the video and let me experiment with some music and send back to you. I spent 25+ years in television here in the USA... Keep up the good work "novice" I liked this and gave you 5 stars. I also taught television at a private university here in Texas... Good stuff, keep at it.

[NinjasLikeCheese]

Wake up go to work, shop, do this and that.

Wake up go to work, shop, do this and that.

Wake up go to work, shop, do this and that.

Wake up go to work....... then we all die.

Everyones going nowhere [mentally/psychologically] for something.

Society has lost it's sense of direction, meaning and morals.

[MurrayPettit]

You're just an idiot.

Either enjoy your life or kill yourself. Don't put downers on other people's day just cause your having a shite one.

Edinburgh is a great place.

I live there.

[balzayed76]

Edinburgh !! the city that I fall in love with .. GOD bless scotland and its people

[scottishlowoflow]

how did you manage to keep the camera still that long and not get it stolen off you

[ClickToWalk]

Ha ha, funny you should say that. I had a mini tripod which was sat on top of an electric/telephone junction box on the corner with Princes Street. I kept my hand very close and was constantly looking round, a few scares when people came running up the other side of the railings. Apologies for the delay in replying but I´ve just moved to Barcelona - for good - have not internet access at home, so feel like I´ve lost an arm ;-)

[deanofromofflimit]

Very good!

I was in Scotland from the 23rd of December - 5th January with my girlfriend and her family.

Staying in a town called Kelty. Next flight up there on the 11th Feb - 17th Feb.

Can't wait...I loved Edinburgh, Ferris wheel was fun!

Great video =)

[meltec2]

Thats nice. Always good to see TL that lasts longer than two second. You must have stood there for some time, realy good amount of detail. Also took some of the wheel a few years ago now ( Winter Wonderland) but this year concentrated on the reflections of the wheel at night in the Mount Royal windows, came out nice. I am subscibing to your channel as i expect to see more good stuff.

Cheers.

[ClickToWalk]

Thanks for the feedback, The original footage was 57 minutes long. Taken at the bottom of Hanover Street with the camera on a mini tripod, on top of a telephone junction box which was nicely positioned; thanks BT :). It got a wee bit chilly and I was a little concerned somebody might try to run off with the camera. The quality is badly degraded in the upload, I was hoping to see more definition in the lights on the wheel and trees. Any 'Top Tips'would be gratefully received. Thanks again.
