What was May 2010 like? Some rain, a lot of sunshine, but also very cold. All pictures, photos and videos, were taken within 15 minutes cycling distance from my home.

Green Frog

As you will see in this video and in the other posts in the Pictures of the Months series I am fascinated by nature.
If you want me to take pictures on other topics in my hometown Ostend, just leave a comment.

Pictures for May 2010:

• birds (what did you expect)
• flowers
• Ostend at Anchor, a maritime event
• froggery

To create this slide-show I used the following hardware and software:

Hardware:

• Canon Powershot S3 IS and the Conversion Lens Adapter LA-DC58E with the Canon Teleconverter TC-DC58B 1.5x for long distance shots and the Canon Close-up Lens 500D for close-ups.
• Canon Legria FS20
• Manfrotto tripod

Software

• iPhoto ’09
• iMovie ’09

Below you will find two videos: the first one is with English subtitles and the second with Dutch subtitles.

What do you think? Is 4-5 topics per slide-show enough or too much? I intend to keep the duration of the slide-shows below 5 minutes, or is this already too long? Do you have any suggestions for other topics? Leave a comment.
