MASTER GARDENER
SELF | March 10, 09 | swampsniper

Posted on 03/10/2009 2:24:23 AM PDT by SWAMPSNIPER

A friend of mine is a volunteer master gardener at the St. John's County Florida Arboretum. She puts in countless hours creating a beautiful place to smell the flowers.

I made this video for Shirley and all the folk's involved at the St. John's County Arboretum.

What a beautiful production! The background music is perfect, you linger on each shot long enough to study it, the slight movement keeps it from being statically boring, and each photo is worth framing. They must have been very happy with it, weren’t they?

Our day here is rainy and gray. Peaceful in its own way but I’m going back and enjoy the bees and flowers now.

Very nice! Thanks for the ping.

I am making a DVD like that for my garden center. I have Summer and Fall done, so this year I’m adding Spring and then Winter when we have Christmas Trees again...there was so much bloody snow this winter and hardly ANY sunny days that I couldn’t get any quality shots. Grrr!

But, it’s turned out great so far; Husband did the editing and set it to music, I took the pictures.

Then, when it’s all perfect, I’m selling it to my employer as a TV ad. LOL!

I’ll send you a copy, Gabz, when it’s done...or before.

Yes, Red_Devil 232 did a great job, which only serves to highlight how fantastic you are at keeping up with the gardening threads and pinglist all of the time! My thanks to both of you.

To do that properly make sure it can be "clipped" at 14, 29, 44, and 59 seconds. That way you can have 15, 30, 45, and 60 second spots.

After I see it, I'll write the voice-over copy for you........for a fee of course (ROFL!!!!!)

Great idea! Hadn’t thought of that. I’ll suggest it to my photo editor. :)

checking in & thank you for ping.

Heavy rain here & still NOT spring. NE Ohio weather sucks!.

Gardening is in my dreams however & yard clean up is immense here & so time for pretties later .

.

Here is one of my "brugs" (angle trumplet ) from past years... Now they are inside, looking terrible & being used I am sure as an alternate kitty liter box! 5 years ago I had 10 of these huge plants (10 feet high) inside all winter. Now I am down to 5 but space is okay. They are very easy to propagate with woody or green cuttings
