A little story about 'Land van Ooit':
Wildebras lived together with his wife Rondalia in the Pink Castle of Everyday. All ‘Ooiters’ loved the couple, but one. His name was ‘Stor de Bostor’. Stor lived deep in the ‘OerOud’ Forest and was in love with Rondalia and greatly jealous of ‘Graaf Wildebras’. When Rondalia was abducted one day by the common wizard (Stor), everything was tried to free Rondalia, but without succes. Rondalia cried for days, maybe weeks. It made Stor crazy and he freed Rondalia with one condition. He would return in one year and Rondalia would have to marry him. The entire year , she should not look at anyone ore that person would change into a duck. Rondalia accepted the offer, because she wanted nothing more than go back to Wildebras. When she arrived at the Pink Castle, a big party was organized. Everybody was in a party mood, except Rondalia. She knew about the one agreement see made. She broke every castle mirror and from then on she always wore a big hat, so that she could not see anyone. Wildebras did not understand anything about Rondalia's weird behavoir.
For a year, he looked for ways to cheer her up. Nothing helped. Then Wildebras asked Rondalia to marry him and of course the answer was yes. A great party was organized, the entire Land was in a party mood. However, ‘Stor de Bostor’ had not forgotten the agreement, but he appeared to late at the party. The yes-word was already given. Stor was furious. Dark clouds gathered over the pink castle and Stor shouted: ”Oh, look them there now, stupid, stupid, undeserved. You made one agreement! Now I wil wander you and your ‘Graaf Wildebras’ in a white and black swan!
And so it happened. Wildebras and Rondalia were turned into swans. And yet something wonderful happened .... because of their great love, Wildebras did not change in a black swan but in a black and white swan. Rondalia did not change in a white swan, but in a white and black swan. Stor was perplexed and was disgusted with love. He retired in the ‘OerOud’ Forest and never returned. Wildebras and Rondalia still swim in 'The Traan', a specially constructed pond in the form of a tear, in ‘Reuzenland’. Every day, they also make a ride with a glass boat drawn by the horse ‘Mooi’. The Governor of ‘Ooit’ is the only one who can talk with them, in the language ‘Swan’. And you can still hear Stor, if you listen very carefully, still whimpering in his smelly maze holes.
Nice video and great story. But how to explain the soldiers in the pond?
Thanks for the compliment. The soldiers represent the story about the battle of Waterloo. Napoleon's soldiers were enchanted when they walked true the water. So they turned into statues. Nowadays the costs are to high to remove them, so they are part of the park. It is quite impressive to see them.

Hi Cetacean, again thanks. I used the sport mode. I didn't know there was a feature Narrow Sensing and I am going to check that one.
Aloha Bitt3rsun,
Hey, that is a solution. Interesting approach. Never thought of that. With the EXPO settings, one might even thread the needle as you did. Interesting!
But, I have to say that Narrow Sensing and Tripod are a lot less nerve wracking I am sure.
