Slideshows
Kewaunee Light & Sky – Video Slideshow
This is another attempt at showcasing some of my favorite photos using a video/slideshow. These images are from my Kewaunee lighthouse collection.
I used a different, more complicated, software solution. I’m not sure the results are so dramatically different than using the simple software I used in my previous post. Only the pros might notice or care about the difference. I was glad that, with a little determination, I was able to figure out the software and get the results I wanted.
I’ve seen varying activity for the slideshows when I post them to social media. On Facebook, I got fewer “Likes” than a normal photo post but a lot more comments and many more shares. Oddly, with all those comments, shares and views I’m not seeing any increase in actual traffic to this website. On Google+ they seem to barely get noticed – much less activity than for a normal photo post; even when I put them in a “Collection.” Well, I still consider this the experimental stage.

Algoma Light & Sky – Video Slideshow
I have been wanting to produce a slideshow of my images for some time. I finally got around to getting one done.
For my first effort, I decided to focus on sunrise images of the lighthouse and pier of Algoma, WI. Of course, I have plenty of other material to work with, as well, so that poses a couple of questions. What will be my next slideshow theme and how long before I get it completed?
I’m sure the next one will come together quicker. This one took me much longer than I anticipated. Finding the right software or app was a big hurdle. (I actually tried several software options before I found something simple enough to be workable, at least for me.) It took me hours just to find music I liked. And, of course, I’m trying to create a masterpiece and stay within my budget of $0.00.
Well, now that I’ve released it to the wild, I guess I’ll find out if the beauty that was in the eye of this “beholder” resonates with others.
