A revisit of the footage from Dog Falls in Glen Affric. Originally captured in April 2023, but I needed to apply some of the editing and colour grading skills that 12 months of further practice and learning have provided me with since the original video was created...

A slower more chilled edit this time, with a more relaxing piece of music, and perhaps we have managed to capture the essence of Glen Affric during the early spring in the Highlands...

Nice and smooth,  but I feel like it needs a tad more saturation in the edit,   but that could just be personal taste.

An awesome place. Gutsy flying too.  Colour now seems appropriate to the location. Nice backing track as well.

Thanks... yeah, its a difficult one, the day was cold and overcast, but if I boost the sat too much it gets garish, so I opted for subtle... may have another play with it at sometime

Thanks... yeah, that gorge was nerve wracking, more so as I hit sideways rather than turn, and came within a few inches of the wall

Indeed,  as a mere viewer it's hard to see what you'd get away with.    Most importantly is that it's nice and smooth.

Oof!  Cold sweat moment

Astonishing views.    The background music really goes well with the footage.  

A beautiful valley - even though I never made it further than the last parking lot (never took the time which is a shame).

Yup, almost a new underwear moment!!

Yes, there are plenty of things to film in the Glen, although it is a bit of a pain to get to... I need to return again soon...

That was the thought in my mind, but I hesitated to express it

You're very welcome.  Hoping the reboot of your channel is going well.

Thanks... sadly not, dropped to 60 or so views a day when I dont post anything, from 1000+... Need the weather to improve and to get out and get some new footage, although there are a few bits I can rework from the early months of our flying...

It's always a battle to get new viewers.  I'm really surprised that your views have dropped off that much.

Yup, seems the main views were coming from an unrelated topic that YT had linked, so delinking it was the only way to get my content seen by those who may be interested, but not sure if I have caused YT to penalise me, or to mark it down... It is what it is, I shall just have to take more footage and make more videos..

Sounds like you are up for the challenge.

Do views of your YT videos on the forum count for views on YT?  If not, I'll start watching and commenting on YT and then comment on the forum.  

Nice views of the falls.

Not sure tbh, but I appreciate any help we can get...

I sent an email to YT and finally got a response.  A full watch on this forum will count as a full watch on YT.  Of course, they prefer we watch on YT.

It was just a chance as I figured I'd probably not hear back from them.

Very nice to see. Especially the low level footage!
