A busy week. Done a lot on the internet. I’m enjoying
learning video making. A long way to go before I can be proud of my work, but
I’ve been putting off publishing videos because of not being good enough. And I'm told that is wrong.
There are many quotes and Memes advocating not to over
analyse or criticise but to dive in. ‘A journey begins by taking the first step.
All such motivation messages of which there are plenty –
This next painful image is not motivational in the quote
sense,but a kick in the rear, or in this case somewhere more precious.
For my video making project I took a YouTube video about Dog Toys and
added clickable images of the products along the bottom of the video. Clicking
takes the visitor to a family members Dog website.
Enjoyed some good television programmes this week,
particularly the top programmes of the decades as decided by audience vote.
Monty Python’s The Dead Parrot Sketch was top for the sixties
Funeral Of A War Hero
He received France’s highest military award, the Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur, in 2015 in recognition of his part in the liberation of France during the war.
A military burial party was present, including 2 buglers.
A big crowd stood round the grave for the interment service. The damp gloomy misty atmosphere, made it just possible to see what was happening.
But it was appropriate really, because the eerie atmosphere was just as images are in the mind, of the battlefields and trenches of France.
The chill foggy atmosphere added extra drama to the trumpeters
sounding The Last Post, and for moments afterwards there was a ghostly silence
from the crowd. Emotionally moved, to quiet, deep, reflective thought.
