No other piece of music coulkd fit the theme of this video more. An excellent choice blessOTMA!

@frostycold111 Thank you frosty! My videos often start with the music & then the images follow.

Many seem to volunteer! lol! ... it seems obvious what photo to put where etc. It's fun to work with both

the photos and the music . The piece from The Piano, ends abruptly & that's why this video ends with singing...but that works better than just having the music end normally !

The sun shines when Olga smiles...

Bless you for making this video, for a few minutes i almost forgot what happened to them until the end...

@frostycold111 Indeed, Olga's whole face lite up. Her eyes smiled as much as her lips and both, so warmly. I'm glad the video made you almost forget for a time ....that is a wonderful complement and I thank you :)

Hi Anne,

I'm so glad to see you've made another video!

I like the background music..... I remember watching the movie "The Piano"

I used to have Video tape of it.

A very nice collection of photos, as well.

Someday it would be nice to see ALL of the Photos of the Late Czar and his family in one large photo album, on-line.....I don't know if that's ever been done?

Warm Autumn wishes ! : )

@IamHelenKeller . Thank you Helen!There are a number of places on line with Romanov photos...Yale being the most famous. They are from the album of Alix's friend, Anna Vyrubova. It's said she wasn't smart. But she knew English and luckily for the Romanov enthusiast, took excellent photographs. Helen, I was just thinking the other day how much I owe you. You got me to take the video leap!

Thank you again! Now I can't imagne doing a painting without its video! & I'm just one of many you help!

@1toscany :Thank you! :)

Very well done!

@wengen2007 . Indeed that is the theme. The assertion goes from Olga Nikolaevna's soul was bright and beautiful to her soul is so...now and at this moment. Her physical life is past, but not herself, Olga radiates still. And of course the broader message is this is true for all .

@olgaromanov123 Thank you! It means alot that you should say so. The music is by Michael Nyman and is from the film "The Piano".
