    Really beautiful, and lovely morning colors. You have a good eye for details. For some of the shots I would have liked more depth, but overall it's really good.

    Stunningly beautiful and wonderfully composed to the music.

    My only one comment would be that at 0'46 the shot of the caravan to me seems out of place compared to the rest of the film. You have so many beautifully composed shots of a marine theme that one of a caravan just distracts things for me.
  •  
  • Very peaceful and well crafted. Nice!

  • Ezaram Vambe plus 1 year ago
    Thanks for all your great comments!
    TRONd you make a good point about the abundance of
    selective focus. All I can say is that ever since I started using this camera I have been addicted to this kind of depth of field... that might very well show in the final result...
    JON you are probably right about that shot of the Caravan.. the main reason why I included it is because it is in fact the office where people go to rent boats and spaces... The sign is in Italian so it was probably rather silly of me to include that... I'm glad you enjoyed the video anyhow !!
    Thanks again !!!

    What a perfect little clip!

    Yes, Excellent use of morning light and the Glidetrack.

    The Glidetrack is such a good tool that I wonder if it is in danger of being overused! (I love mine!).

    I felt this fine little film could have done with a 'focus pull' from foreground to background in some of the shots.

    I have made a focus pull device out of an old BICYCLE TROUSER CLIP a 2 inch thin bolt and a miniature Billiard ball which acts as the handle. It clips instantly over any large lens barrel and will pull smoothly in either direction.

    (Cost £1.) Cheaper than the Zacuto cog rings!
  • Craig Whipps 1 year ago
    Bob, did you mean to write "Billiard CUE STICK which acts as the handle"? (I'm having a hard time visualizing the "ball" being attached to the clip) Like Ezaram, I'd love to see your invention... I've been trying to come up with something along those lines, myself, and am really stuck.
  • bob lorrimer plus 1 year ago
    My Focus PULL is very simple, but works quite well and is very quick to fit.

    The British Trouser Bicycle clip is a "horseshoe shape" rubber coated spring.

    Through the back of the "U" I drill a hole. Then I insert and fix a two and a half inch bolt.

    On the end of the bolt I fasten a small POOL BALL (from a key ring!) which only acts as a smooth handle.

    I now have fitted small rubber 'O' rings to the bicycle clip which engage in the rubber ribs of the lens barrel.

    I hope this helps!

    Clever Stuff!
  •  
  • Ezaram Vambe plus 1 year ago
    Thanks Bob!
    I'm really curious about your DIY follow focus device... it sounds interesting... You should make a video to demonstrate how it's made... I'd love to see that...

    epic. i love how u use diagonals in your compositions. the light conditions are perfect. great choice of music. i would so watermark this footage if ii were u. i can already see someone potentially stealing it... or let me be a bit more optimistic on this one - asking you to use it for their purposes. stunning work. thanks for sharing it on my channel.

    Hi Ezaram,
    My favorite shots are w/o any hesitation minutes 00.10 and 00.37; but the most amazing thing is the no color correction. Beautiful work, if I may criticize one thing, I would have added a little more DOF to some of your shots. Thanks for sharing, Felipe
  • Ezaram Vambe plus 1 year ago
    Thanks Felipe! Your comments are appreciated!

    beautiful images and edit - clean, clear, pristine. i liked the clips of the planks - beautiful depth of field. i liked the awning, and the pole eclipsing the sun. that tamron is working for you - great stuff!
  • Ezaram Vambe plus 1 year ago
    Thanks Paul, I'm really happy you appreciated those elements! Excellent work on your last video.

    I would say that you have landed on Vimeo like a meteor, quite an impact.

    It's nice to see someone who treats their kit with respect, rather than merely show it off with galloping slides and zooms.

    Your scenes, frames, edit and insight are for me faultless.

    Welcome to Vimeo Ezaram, I look forward to your next share.

    Regards

    John.

    They are slow tracks with the Glidetrack.

  • Martin Goldmann plus 1 year ago
    Beautiful - btw, I like the Caravan. For me it is an surprising element in the movie.

    Where did you take that video?
  • Ezaram Vambe plus 1 year ago
    Thanks Martin ! The video was shot in a small harbor in the gulf of Baratti, Tuscany.

  • Kostas Petsas 1 year ago
    Nicely done.
    Great presentation of a very beautiful scenery. Lovely morning colours. Maybe you could have intercut some more wide angle takes with deeper dof (I know, I know, you cannot resist the shallow depth of field that longer focal lengths and wider apertures offer on this camera - same for me...).
    The glidetrack is always a joy to use and to watch :-)
  • Ezaram Vambe plus 1 year ago
    Thanks Kostas! You're right about the DOF, I just couldn't resist...
