It was good fun to be involved in such a project and I thank Vero for organizing this “Vlogging experience.” I particularly enjoyed seeing some parts of the world that I only know from words on a screen or a social media posts.
Would you like to make a video of your corner of the world?
A philosophic Aussie writes here at StPA, one who will readily admit to loving Scandinavia. I'm interested in global politics and what drives us to be who we are. Scratch the surface and you'll find a practical Environmentalist with an egalitarian bent, trying to unleash a little creativity via the written word.
Scandinavian culture, literature and traditions are close to my heart, even though I'm Australian. Travel and courteous discussions greatly broaden the mind, so I travel if I can and am always up for a vigorous, respectful discussion. I'm an avid reader, a writer and I enjoy photography and crafts, particularly traditional art forms. I hope you'll find 'Something to Ponder About,' in my WordPress Community.

Always ready!!! Count me in next time you have a theme in mind.
Thanks again for agreeing to join in for this one.
Have a great weekend.
A theme for Vlogging – hmm. It might have to be something different. Sunrise, perhaps. I loved your window with the sun peeking through, or was it sunset?
Let me know when you’ve decided on something but sunrise seems good to me. You might have to be patient though with the weather we’re having right now in Europe, there’s isn’t a proper sunrise every morning to enjoy!!!
There is no time limit and as it is summer here the sun rises about 4am. I would have to use one of my older videos from winter. But we have time to do this if we come up with another theme too.
I’m actually thinking of doing it regularly because it was so pleasant to do. And I feel very grateful so be helped by such a variety of great bloggers.
I have a fab sunrise video taken in the market town close to our village. If you want it, just let me know 😉
I’m actually thinking the portrait format was a mistake. Try in landscape if you want to have a go. The more we’ll do videos, the better we’ll all get! And it takes us a little further away from what we’re used to do – good oldf-school blogging!
I have another prompt ready for next month. I’ll post the theme in a fortnight and will edit the next video for mid-February.
Thank you again Sagittarius Viking. I had a lovely restful weekend and caught up with reading some blogs.
I am so pleased you enjoyed Vero’s project. Just let me know if you would like to be included in a video compilation with the them sunrise.
Well .. I COULD already show you a v. short video of (a) the BOM online temperature with slow pan down to the date on my laptop (day before yesterday) and an even slower tilt up to (b) read the thermometer on my wall ..
Interesting concept.
An enjoyable project.
Reminded me of Louis Armstrong song ‘What a wonderful world’
Glad to know that these wonderful lovely bloggers remind us that we are not alone !
It was a lovely idea, Laurie. Might you want to join us next time? We are thinking of making a sunrise video, or some other theme, around the blogosphere.
I would be really happy if you want to join in, Dorothy. Vero and I are thinking of doing a sunrise video – sunrise in winter is still a delight – and we have time to wait to catch one in the next few weeks.
Vero had a great idea and it turned out well. I’m glad I contributed but if you’re going to get into more vlog collabs … I’m going to have to upgrade my camera 🙂
I think we’ll all take even more care with our clips next time. We’ll just upgrade our skills 🤣 But who cares really? It ended up in a feel-good video even if our pieces weren’t perfect. Bravo everybody!
What a mad idea, I love all the different doors opening on different countries mad idea. The first one freaked me out a bit although would be great way to get out to surf the boat waves, lol.
I love this! What a fabulous idea! I would love to be included if you put something together. Even though it’s winter here, it’s about 80 degrees here in Southern California… I’d love to share the warmth!
Yes! Hepspics… I mostly post pictures I’ve taken of of colors and patterns… not much personal stuff. And, now it looks like we are following each other!
I meant a time limit for the length of the video, Vero? Do you think we could do a 30 sec video with 6 or more particpants. I see to remember Instagram video can only be short?
I’m in Indonesia, the vaccination process takes place alternately / queues considering the very large population of Indonesia. Unfortunately, this period I have not been included in the vaccination program (because I am only a freelance worker / blogger, mostly working from home). Luckily my wife got the vaccine yesterday from her office.
Sorry for any grammatical errors, English is not my native language.
Best Regards,

Hi Jimmy in Indonesia. I think you are the first or at least one of the first from Indonesia to comment here at StPA. So welcome from Australia. I am heartened to hear that vaccinations are progressing in Indonesia.
Your english is perfect btw. Well done. Is there much Covid disease up your way?
Always ready!!! Count me in next time you have a theme in mind.
Thanks again for agreeing to join in for this one.
Have a great weekend.

Sounds good. Is there a time limit for the final video? I suppose if we post it only on youtube, there is no time limit. Is that right, Vero?
