A Wild Experience

Category: — JRBlack @ 23:29

We try to squeeze in at least on visit to the NC Zoo a year.  Here are some pictures from our most recent visit.  The weather was just beautiful, but a bit too warm.  Every time we go it is just a bit different, different flowers in the planetarium (see previous post), or a new Bee exhibit or how close we are able to get to certain animals.

The helicopter near the elephant exhibit is always a fun time.  This time we saw a baby or small baboon that was fun to watch.  Oh, and this time Old Faithfull water spout was working.

Below is a video of the pictures and if you prefer, below that are thumbnail images from Flickr.  Click on a thumbnail image to view the larger size at Flickr.  Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Apathetic USA

My dad sent me an email today with a link to a site with a political video.  I think I have seen this video before, but can not say for sure.  But it is good.  I hope and pray our country is not as bad off as the video portrays it to be.  So, I thought I would share it here so it would be easy for me to find it again to compare it to how things really went.

My First YouTube video

Category: Webware | Software | Photography — JRBlack @ 21:57

Toda…. my very first YouTube video.  It isn’t much, quite short, quality all the way to 720p which is real clear and sharp.  Of course it didn’t hurt any that the pictures I took were crisp and in focus.  I made this video using ProShow Producer from PhotoDex.  ProShow Gold and Producer are quite nice programs for making amazing slide show presentations.

ProShow has way too many features and options to go into right now, but you could loose a lot of time exploring, playing and experimenting with it.  It included many export options including DVD, EXE, Web, FLASH, YouTube and more.

Give it a try and be sure to check out my first YouTube video below.
