Day: 27 August 2010

  • Flower

    I popped out earlier today to Castle Park to take some new photos for this photo challenge. You can see the results on my photostream, the one here is probably my favourite.

    My second favourite is probably this one, not really sure why! It was a good day for photos today – the sun seemed to be at just the right kind of angle. Beautiful day, just after the rain so everything is fresh.

    Anyway, hope you enjoy! I just hope I can keep this up for a year… we will see!

  • Ashes to Ashes and fanvids

    A couple of weeks ago I completed my first “fanvid”. In case you don’t know what a “fanvid” is, it’s basically a fan-made video created using clips of a programme (in this case, Ashes to Ashes) with a backing song. It’s basically a mashup, and it’s probably best just to watch some examples. Some of my favourites, done by my friends, are Anne-Marie’s Mad World / Life on Mars video, and Sarah’s Even Angels Fall / Sherlock video.

    Anyway, I got really into the last series of Ashes to Ashes. The idea for the video had been brewing for a long time but I finally got round to doing it recently.

    You can see it here. Note that this may give away a few things if you haven’t seen Ashes to Ashes series 3, so – you have been warned!
