A lovely film of a lovely garden Jan. I enjoyed it very much. The music and lyrics, were written by Mark Knopfler. I've just had a quick go at playing it, regretfully unsuccessfully because it includes barre chords and I'm hopeless at them. Well, I'm not but my fingers are ;D

Jan, a nice garden with well grown plants and video.
David, have you tried Local Hero? Handle with care by the Travelling Wilburys is worth a go, like you, I can,t play barre chords.

Ian, I couldn't tackle Going Home, much too complicated to me. Handle With Care, I can make a stab at.

Our garden in 2017
2017 a productive year. Various new projects. The existing objects are growing up. Photos are from the course of the year.
The movie is HD and you can watch full screen. The music is The Blue Danube Waltz of Johann Strauss Jr.

I enjoyed your latest film very much Jan, thank you. Just a suggestion, would it be possible to slow your film down a little, I find before I have finished looking at a plant the film has moved on......................................... or am I just very slow? ;D

Each photo is 5 seconds. I might have thought too slowly. But maybe it could have been 2 seconds longer.

I think Jan that the transitions between slides take up too much of the total time and are distracting. The same thing applies, for me anyway, when decorative surrounds/mounts are used round the slide, or a bright or coloured background.

Thank you David and Brianw for the constructive criticism.
Of course I am only an amateur.
In the creator program I have put the photo's slites on from 5 to 8 seconds.
I hope it's better now.
The link is changing to the new slite show.

A brilliant video Jan and I can do no better than re-quote Lesley Cox's words on another thread earlier today.  Lesley's and indeed my own ""envy of people who have a genius touch for doing rock work in such a way it would be exactly at home on any remote mountain-top or scree""

Brilliant also, in addition to the quality of the rock work, from the named and beautiful plants that will serve as an aide memoire to my more humble planting efforts in the future.

I was lucky too see that the following video that came up on screen was a reprise of your polystyrene trough making Jan. It did make me think that you really must get through some huge quantities of tea towels in your household! ;D

Post by: Jan Tholhuijsen on December 30, 2017, 09:52:42 PM
Thank you David for your compliment. Yes, we had a lot of old tea towels, which we no longer used. (a dishwasher).
But I made 8 more, (for a small price) for friends and now use old bed sheets. Cut into pieces, goes well too.

Right now, I wish you and all other rock plant enthusiasts on this forum a happy and prosperous 2018.

That's simply amazing, Jan. I enjoyed this slide show video thoroughly. You can tell you've put some thought into this, and it turned out awesome.

A video made with a selection of only flowering saxifragas of this spring. About 200 pieces. Maybe too long, but for lovers of saxifraga it can be interesting.
You can sit full of screen and sound. Music is 'Blue_Danube' by Strauss and 'Fur_Elise' by Beethoven

The saxifraga gutter, made in autumn 2015, now 3 years later.Planted with about 95 saxifragas, in this 3 years a loss of 5 pieces, with now still a few with damage. This fall together with my friend Jos van Bergen (he did all the work) of all our saxifragas take cuttings. 13 breeding boxes, about 800 pieces. Awful lot of work.
