New slideshow, leaving behind Autumn and entering Winter. Res: 1920x1200

A new slideshow and my last for this year. Photographs taken during the last three months of the year over the last few years. Res: 1920x1200.

Every year since 2010 I've done a show on the Edinburgh Tattoo. This year I thought I'd concentrate on the faces which make up the Fringe and the Tattoo. The soundtrack is ' Put on a Happy Face ' by Oscar Peterson.

Res: 1920:1200; 6m.15s. My annual end-October visit to the Scottish Highlands. Maureen

Relatively little snow in the Scottish Highlands this winter. However, a couple of recent short breaks yielded just enough images for this slideshow. Res: 1920x1200. 5m.15s.

The Yorkshire Dales National Park, an area of beautiful valleys (dales), hills and stone villages. The photographs in this presentation were taken mainly in the more westerly dales, which are the ones closer to my home. Keyboard control enabled. Maureen

One of two weeks in the Italian Lake District late last summer, this one based in Bellagio on Lake Como. Res: 1920x1200

Religion is important in northern Ethiopia.

A Story of the Malay population at Cape Town

This Slide Show was the subject of a Video Step by step tutorial that was made for Digital Photo Magazine in 2003. The subject was making a slide show with PicturesToExe and it appeared on the magazine cover disk along with this slide show that was the subject of the tutorial. I have adjusted the format of it a little for PC and Mac, but the slide show remains as was made in 2003. The slide show helped (a little) to raise awareness of PTE in the UK For those who like a little nostalgia

An early morning sail into Venice to spend 24 hours in that glorious city in April this year.

This is one of my first AVs to date and I would appreciate any constructive crits please.

2017 Christmas greetings to all our PicturesToExe friends from Lin and Ruby Pup in Colorado... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all....

I had hoped this show could be good enough for a photo-harmony competition, but sadly I just can't get it to flow as well as I'd like. So, it's just a record of a recent trip to Thailand, i hope you like it.

More images from my son's trip to Guatemala, this time featuring the people going about their daily lives in the cities and towns. Maureen

A brief stop at Chania on the Isle of Crete, a port of call during a cruise in the Aegean.

This is my first attempt at the digital book. There is a lot to correct because some of the 'pages' do not open smoothly and I am still working on it. I run a small Audio Visual club at U3A Noosa in Queensland, Australia. All the members are new to AV's and this is one of the projects.

I live very close to this beach, the Long Sands at Tynemouth, Tyne and Wear and have hundreds of images of the beach taken over several years. This is a compilation of images to show the spirit of the place under different conditions.

A new show of a few slides put together, all taken during our winter months. Res: 1920:1200. 4m. 55s. Keyboard control enabled. Maureen

A short AV (just under 4 minutes) set to a Neil Diamond classic. Keyboard control enabled and about 36mb in size.

Another visit to Andalucia, this time in February this year, hopeful of catching the almond blossom in full bloom. Alas, after a very mild Spring, most of it had already flowered before we arrived.

Royal Greenwich Park is situated in South East London. During the summer months concerts are performed on the bandstand. Greenwich Concert Band plays there every year. The music "Greenwich Park" used in this audio visual was composed by one of the band members and played by the band.

A week in October 2015 based at Loch Sunart to explore western Lochaber and the Isle of Mull. Res: 1920:1200

Theses pictures were all shot in June 2016 while on holiday in North Wales. The file size is 35mb.

Memories of another visit to Venice. For photo experts - sorry I could not pack my tripod, so hand held at 3200-6400 iso; 1/15 - 1/30 shutter speed and wide open at F4. For audio experts, sorry recorded on my iphone. For Photoshop experts - I did what I could but don't look too closely. Having said that i hope you enjoy.

Antoni Gaudi died in 1926 and today is recognised as one of the worlds greatest architects. This A/V shows some of his most prestigious designs in his home city of Barcelona including the Basilica "Segrada Familia which is still being built and not due for completion until 2026, a century after his death.

This is a simple slow fade style slideshow produced for my family, featuring photos taken on a once of a lifetime trip to New Zealand.

I am not religious in the least but do appreciate church music, church art and church architecture so I have put together this show and being Good Friday it seems appropriate to upload it today.

Hi, As every year, during the Advent's time, the members of the French forum Diapositif.net put each day an AV as an Advent Calendar gift. Here is my own contribution. Unfortunately, the story is in French. Thank you to excuse me. Here is the summary : During all the Middle Ages, the archbishopric of Sens (60 km from my home) was very powerful : it contained 7 bishoprics, of which Paris. This certainly explains why the Sens Cathedral was so innovative, and is now regarded as the first Gothic Cathedral (XII century) with the St-Denis Abbey. A transept was added in the end of the XV century. At the south entry (for the bishops) is a big rose window, with Last Judgement details. At the north entry (for the chapter) is a (smaller) big rose window, named The Rose of Paradise. I tried to describe this magnificent rose in a tale way : One day, the designer of the rose, still without ideas (as me !!), falls asleep and dreams arriving in the Paradise. There, he sees 33... ? (well, you'll see !) And with the aid of St Cecilia, St Veronica St Étienne St Peter, and a magical mirror (the reflections become real !) he is now able to draw and paint the screen of the rose. And later, in the middle of a Christmas night... But please, see by yourself ! Merry Christmas to you all, and my best wishes for 2016

A few hours spent in the town of Orta San Guilio on Lake Orta, Northern Italy in September.

In this the 100th Anniversary of The Somme and Passchendale, I thought of the very fine work the War Graves Commission does. This is my tribute to them.

A selection of my own images, taken around the Hope Valley area of the Derbyshire Peak District.

A cruise around Ullswater in late October. 46.8mb in size and about 6 minutes long.

A cacophony of pandemonium; sights, sounds and smells, people and pollution, resulting in a sensory overload. The poverty and rubbish are in sharp contrast to the armed guards at gated hotels, where there is not a single leaf out of place. On the streets; the children, who seem to have nothing, are happy and clean. It's confusing, sometimes most disturbing, but a wonderful place to visit and (for me) a once in a lifetime experience. Following Barry's advice, I re-visited this show that was V1 in 2015. For some reason, it just didn't work for me. But it now does in V2.

Evolutionary time is almost impossible to imagine The original of this sequence used 3 full screen video clips, but unless it was viewed on a powerful desktop, the video was not smooth enough for my liking. When shown on a moderate Laptop, the video full screen does not work so good. Hence the reduction of the video to insets rather than full screen. In my view the video is a vital part of the whole thing with the music
