Ok sometimes I even surprise myself how distractable I am. Just ask my wife… I can be right in the middle of something and be determined to get it done and then all the sudden I am off doing something else and have no idea what got me off on that tangent. This happens all the time when I am work on pictures. I will processing away and then all the sudden YouTube is up and I am spinning in the black hole of internet that is YouTube.

Well this is a little story about how I got distracted about 4 1/2 years ago and just figured out that I got distracted when I was looking for an image on a backup DVD (which incidentally was because I had been distracted from my work by trying to find a little background image for my blog that I created a few years back)… anyway I started this slideshow video of the pictures that I took while on a family vacation to Europe back in 2002! Yes 2002!

Anyway I really liked the video but I did it on a PC and am now completely Mac so the small edits that I wanted to make were out of the question so what did I do? You guessed it I stopped what I was doing and opened iMovie to recreate some of the magic. Now I have never used iMovie so some of this is not exactly what I wanted but the pics are there. I am done with it too :) So here you go! (just click the play button) oh and I think you will have to have a Quicktime plugin for your browser or be on a Mac. Sorry windows folks… what can I say I am a photographer not a video guy.

EDIT: Had to change the way this worked cause it was killing some other stuff that needed to load in the page. Just click the link to see the vid. Click HERE to watch the slideshow.

EDIT 2: Just uploaded it to YouTube so here you go :)
