One Hundred Nights Video

Today I was in the mood to play around a bit in the early morning with some photos out of my Nightshot Photo Collection and rendered out a video slideshow. I named the video ‘One Hundred Nights’ as I quickly selected just exactly 100 photos out of all my Nightshots.

Just uploaded the clip to my freshly built Mlenny Photography Youtube Channel. So here you find approx. 4 min of nightshots from all around the world.

Those 100 shots were made in the following countries:

USA, Germany, Turkey, Mauritius, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Oman, Japan, Canada, India, United Kingdom, Italy, South Africa, Austria, Slovenia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Ireland, Greece, Russia, Morocco, Croatia, Taiwan, Myanmar in total from 27 different countries.

I`m sure you can name a lot of those locations and countries, maybe even all of them? Maybe next time I might make a game out of that idea :-)

In my enthusiasm I picked a bit too fast some shots in the 100 images selection this morning, as some countries & locations repeat too often for my taste…but whatever, it was a test..and I had a lot of fun building this slideshow video.

Hope you like it. And a ‘Happy Easter to all of you reading my blog!!’

Enjoy the long weekend searching for easter eggs and the longer daylight in the next months after switching your watches and towards summer daylight saving time.
