Gliding / Zweefvliegen @ Aero Club Salland 1080p © Song: WTLGD

Most awesome birthday gift - ever.

I've done skydiving, absailing and other forms of altitudes craziness before. But never did I thought I'd get to glide and soar like a bird. Gliding is like surfing, except this time I'm riding invisible waves of thermal clouds. And heh, I seem to have a knack for it. Maybe its beginners luck.

1st time shooting video with the 550D outdoors in Manual Mode. Did big mistake of grab-point-n-shoot with last settings; thus the overexposures at times. Hmm.. Much needed to be learnt with this genre of DSLRs. But definitely worth the experience and practise.

One year older, hopefully one year wiser. :)

Soundtrack is from studio recording I did on an SSL with ProTools HD. Google for FusedMarc for more info about this awesome Lithuanian band!

@Thekakaguide1 Thanks! You should ask Salland to do a video for the company website and I'd be glad to shoot and edit a fresh one for adverts use on their website. ;-)
