Sitting on a bench by the old weir, this morning at sun up.

Great slow-mo Blériot!

Peaceful...

Peaceful...

Yes, just the sound of the rushing water. A place to relax and let the mind drift with the current
A heron fishes here from time to time but I've not yet managed to film it.

I like it.
And the kids would love this. (in real life)

Bonjour Blériot, ça fait un moment que j'étais pas revenu sur le site ...

J'espère que tu vas bien.

Super cette vidéo !!! et le slow motion rends vraiment super bien

Lovely spot.   Was that one hand held?

Awesome slo-mo Blériot.    Appears to be a very peaceful and calming location.  

Great slow motion mate!

Just a few minutes' walk from home, too

Salut Pascal! Merci. Oui, effectivement ça fait un moment depuis notre dernière échange sur le forum. Et nous sommes maintenant plus loin que jamais l'un de l'autre. Toi toujours dans la Corrèze si je n'me trompe pas, et moi depuis mi-avril aux alentours de Manchester au millieu des Royaumes Unis. Tout va bien pour nous, merci. Et autant pour toi je l'espère?  Je me tâche de jeter un clind'oeil sur ton site YT afin de me tenir au courant avec tes activités. Bien cordialement ,  Roger.

Hi David. Thanks.  The slowMo was hand/held. But then of course I had to do some normal speed to get the background sound as well. I was able to perch the gear on my knee as I was sat on the bench overlooking the weir. So it was fairly stable

Thanks Peter. They could paddle in the stream in places (but not there) it's quite a shallow river.

Thanks mate. It's a lovely spot to sit and contemplate.

If it is warm enough, they just walk right in and create dams etc. with the stones.

COLD!  Even in summer  

Nicely done, that's great footage.

They have their limits when it comes to cold.

Thanks Chris. Inspired by a quiet moment in the Torrs yesterday

I thought so,  at the beginning there was a very slight movement and then it got really stable.

It's a definite help with stability

Can you activate the pocket 2 with a remote?

Blériot53 Posted at 11-8 06:54
Just a few minutes' walk from home, too

Wow, that's incredibly convenient for it to be so close.  

Blériot53 Posted at 11-8 14:31
Me too!

Likewise

Blériot53 Posted at 11-8 06:53
Thanks mate. How are you doing?

I'm fine mate, working from home but from day to day I have a lot of work to do. I decided to upgrade my gear. Mavic mini is gone
How are you?

DAFlys Posted at 11-9 01:34

I can control it remotely with my Samsung Galaxy S9

It has its advantages

All good here thanks. Still have the Mini 1 and the M2Z, as well as the Pocket 2. No plans to change any of it just now.

Thats handy,   I can do the same with my iPhone,   that is control it from my watch.

The onscreen controls on the P2 are tiny and fiddly.

Blériot53 Posted at 11-9 10:02
The onscreen controls on the P2 are tiny and fiddly.

And if youre like Monty easily broken.

DAFlys Posted at 11-10 00:48

Oh!  Has he had a mishap?  It does feel like miniaturisation has reached its limit with the P2.  All the attachments are fiddly.  I only connect the phone to the P2 directly to perform updates. The connector has very little mechanical strength and is incapable of maintaining a reliable support between the phone and the P2 for any rigorous use.

He broke the joystick IIRC. Its under warranty but was having issues with the cost of postage from NL.

I'm guessing there's no local agent in the Netherlands like we have in the UK?  I have the same joystick, but it has survived my ham-fistedness so far.

Not sure.  I think it was more an issue with UPS.

I'm sure it does.  You're very fortunate to have it so close.

I walk through that way to get to the village. It's much steeper (down and up the other side) rather than taking the road over the viaduct.
