I agree with Barry, even using a mouse it can be a real pain trying to get the volume exactly where you want it. his suggested a fix would resolve the situation.

I use this feature a lot, I would not like to see it withdrawn.

Hi Ray, happy new year to you and Ann. The sound is much better on your 2nd. try. It's (as usual) a great AV with your special brand of great photography, a really cold morning on Romney marsh, I could feel the cold through the images. Well done. Best wishes, Don

I have posted a sequence on Beechbrook, www.beechbrook.com/pte called "One Toy Soldier", Thanks to Bill Hines for hosting it. The toy soldier is a broken Christmas present, so I thought it appropriate to post it now. Don Foster

Hi Ray, The images were fantastic, the poem was the icing on the cake, very well done. Don

Well done Ray, a real cracker. Best wishes Don

Snapcam, thank you for your comments, really pleased you enjoyed the sequence. I did originally think of using a calendar, but the clock shows the final seconds, not the final day which I thought was more relevant.

Hi Bert, thank you for your comments, pleased you enjoyed the sequence. Best wishes, don

Thank you Morturn and Eric for your kind comments, very pleased you enjoyed the sequence. Eric I will revisit the show and see if I can improve the balance between my voice and the music, thank you for pointing that out.

I have posted a show on Beechbrook called "It's about time". I did the show about 4 years ago, the voice over was very poor quality and I've just got around to trying to improve it. Thanks to Bill Hines for all the sequences he's allowed me to post on Beechbrook. I did not write the original poem in the sequence, I got that from the local church when they posted a leaflet through the letterbox. I rang the church to get permission to use the poem. I had to change the poem to fit with the sequence. The sequence is basically about my life and how I would like it to have been, with some emphasis on how precious this life really is. Hope you enjoy the sequence. Don Foster

Barry, I can only find one word to describe your sequence.......MAGIC!!!, I enjoyed every second, images to die for, a real inspiration sequence. Thank you for sharing. Don Foster

Really like your sequence Ray, I thought the raindrops really added to the images, well done. (I also like the Shadows). Don

Thank you DavyC for your kind words and encouragement, I am very pleased you enjoyed the Shoreham show. I understand what people are saying about the timing in the Farnborough show, when I first did the show and followed the beat exactly some images were on screen for too long some barely on at all and it didn't flow, it seemed disjointed. I will visit it again and see if I cam improve the balance, but I think it would spoil the sequence if the overall flow is interrupted. ( I must admit I love the extended time of Albatross, I would have played it twice but that would have been greedy, I'm not sure I would have had enough images to warrant it). Many thanks Don

Thank you Dave, DG, and Eric for your comments. I felt the transitions suited the music but I'm no musician. My late wife use to chastise me that I was tone deaf, (I couldn't dance either) perhaps she was right. We will never all agree, but if we didn't post our sequences we wouldn't have anything to talk about. Best wishes Don

Thank you for your comments Eric, This sequence won the "Kent County Photographic Association" annual audio visual competition and was also awarded the trophy for best photography. Though you can never please everyone I respect your opinion, but I want the sequence to be different to the Farnborough one. Best regards Don

I have posted another airshow on Beechbrook titled "Shoreham airshow, 2012", This was called Battle of Britain airshow 2012. The day was mostly overcast so some of the skies are a little bland. The show can be found at:- http://beechbrook.com/pte/ There are several bits of music in the show starting with a song from the first world war. Hope you enjoy the sequence. Don Foster

Thank you Jim, Colin and Roger for your comments, sometimes Roger I put sound effects in sequences, sometimes I want the images and music to tell the story by themselves, this was one of those times. Best regards Don

Thank you Eric and Mick for your kind words and encouragement. I love Fleetwood Mac so using Albatross in the sequence was a plus for me. I'm ashamed to say I have only been to Farnborough air show the once, but I am keen to go again. Don

I have posted a show on Beechbrook called "Farnborough airshow, 2012". All the images in the sequence were taken on the day at Farnborough. I was very lucky that the clouds were at times stunning. The show can be found at http://beechbrook.com/pte/ I hope you enjoy the sequence. Don Foster

Hi Ray, I don't normally like long AVs, there are exceptions to every rule, and I found your AV an exception, I agree with you only using fades, the whole point of this AV was the exceptional photography and I must congratulate you, I must admit that I was envious from the first image to the last. Very well done. Don Foster

DAVY I have just watched your A.V. which I really enjoyed. I would imagine it would be difficult to get the images. My sort of A.V. donf
