A Weekend in Normandie

There's no dog shit in Normandie and although the sky was grey on this particular weekend and there was lot's of wind, love was in the air. No real need there for a guide but if you want to take back shots like these you'll need a really long arm for some of the angles or a tripod on wheels....and a remote control or lots of passing by strangers that will cut your head off on almost every picture you'll ask them to take of you.

You might as well bring me along! I promise I won't tell....

I love this song. Did Django recorded it on a 78 RPM ?

Excellent video.

THANKS

[josealonsoleon]

Many thanks to you for your nice comments. Sorry I can't respond to your question as I have no idea on what Django recorded this but I agree there is a hint of old vynil record playing but then again today they can similate just about everything when they remaster recordings!

Artistic touch, romantique, manifique Messr. Jose. Is that Grappelli on the violin? Five stars *****

[josealonsoleon]

Thanks Dave it probably is Grappelli because he recorded many albums with Reinhardt, although not sure 100% I can't seem to find the CD cover and the title "Les Standards Django" on iTunes does not come up. But its off this album from Django Reinhardt.

Hi, you made this in response to a video (well, song really) I posted. Just wanted to say Zomg! My first ever video response ^_^ Also that those are some lurvely snaps.

The music suit the shots very well.

[josealonsoleon]

I'm glad you liked it. The shots were actually snapped just across the small pond that separates your piece of land from the one I live on. If you like the pics you can see them and many more including some panoramic views (That I like a lot) on my web site.

I'm curious to know where the picture you used for your video came from? I like it very much.

[Skitlus]

Yes, it is Grappelli, Stephane Grappelli.

It's a still from the X06 trailer of the game.

If you go to GameTarilers and then stick BioShock into their search engine, then click on the Movies link, you'll be taken to a page where you can view or download it. The second video down is the one you are after.
