I intended to share this with everyone at DragonFest but due to technical difficulties I wasn't able... so here it is for your entertainment.

Let me know what you think.
Enjoy!

Very, very well done! :upthumbs
You've been hiding this video editing talent from us! Now the cat is out of the bag. I forsee more projects in your future!

We'll need this link to get the juices flowing for our Fall Run.

So you had to make your own video just so you could use that song for something huh?;LOL It kind of sticks in your head for a few days doesn't it?
Great video, great photo shots, great roads, great music!

Thx Pete. :D

I've been editing and arranging the photos with a video in mind for awhile... even before I heard the music. Once I heard that song... it clicked. :_rock

What an awesome job. I was so impressed that I sent the link to several people I know.

You should contact GM. That would make a great commercial for the vette. Maybe a little video mixed in, and maybe a few older vettes as well (like mine). Very, very nice. I'd like a copy.

Thanks Sal. I've put it on CD's for myself and Tammy. I'll see what I can do for you. ;)

We need to keep this in mind for our Fall Dragon run. Unfortunately we didn't get as many photos this time with the weather like it was. Maybe October will be better.

Glad you liked it G. I know there are more members that have rode the Dragon but that was all the photos I could dig up. Sorry you couldn't be there for the Spring Run... we'll save you a place in October!

That was just awesome - how were you able to get so many pics with only corvettes and others with no cars at all? Makes this a collectors' item, at least for me. Are you selling the CDs - sure would like one. There is just one problem - one that you most certainly can handle - now you are going to be expected to make another one for Cruise Fest here in Colorado. The opportunity for great pics should be bountiful - and we will want a CD of course.
Thanks for sharing the Dragon with us that really want to make the drive someday. The slide show is the next best thing to driving it. Next year I will be retired and hope I can make one of them.

Thanks again

I just watched this today, I don't know how I missed it until now. Just old and blind I guess. :W

Jane Ann, this was just simply amazing!!! You did an absolute amazing job. I know I've said amazing in the last 2 sentences, but I don't believe you can say it too many time about this video (... I just said it again, didn't I). :bowrofl

I'm sure you put many, many hours into putting this together and it shows. A very great job. :_rock

Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm really glad you liked it. Believe me - it was a labor of LOVE (although more than a few times I was ready to throw the whole project out the window. :L )

Since so many have expressed an interest in a copy... would you guys consider $5 too much to ask? That would cover the cost of First Class postage, a CD mailer, the CD, time and Chevron Supreme gas. ;)

Let me know if you're interested.

Jane Ann,

Absolutely beautiful photography. I ran that road a few years ago and those shots brought back the thrill of that drive. Thank you for the fantastic presentation.

Definitely interested - and $5 is not too much at all. Just let us know how (check, MO, cash) you want us to send the $ and where. Thanks in advance

Thanks Remo! I started gathering photos after I made my first Dragon Run last year. I fell in love with the road and the area during that less than 24 hour visit. When the collection began to expand to more than a hundred photos, I got the idea to make a movie with them.

I CANNOT take credit for the photography, thus the acknowledgement and dedication at the end of the presentation. The photos have been posted at various sites all over the web, and some here by CAC members.

That's another reason I'm NOT trying to make a profit from it... just covering expenses.

Barrett...
I called my local post office today and as soon as I wrap up the details I'll let you know. 5 bucks it is.

I have been off the site for a bit and just saw the video.

Great job Jane Ann. Very nicely done. Liked the music and all of the
shots. It really captures the character of the road and the surrounding area.
:upthumbs:upthumbs

Enjoyed watching it and appreciate all the time you spent putting it together.
