It's been way longer than I ever anticipated. I'll admit - I let time get away from me and work began to take over, sucking away my energy. Energy that would be used to come home and edit.
Well, this week I turned a new leaf. I buckled down. Picked my head up and dove right in. Color correcting over 3600 photos in two days. Yes, by the end of it my eyes were tired, my fingers were sore from all the key strokes, and my back ached from hunching over the computer, but I did it. I'm only two months behind my deadline...
To recap real quick though - Ireland is an amazing place. I'd highly recommend it to anyone. The people there are so warm and gracious, the scenery is jaw-dropping, the food perfect, and the whiskey and Guinness flows like water. Not only is the destination great, but the trip as a whole was better than anything I could have ever asked for. I got to see my mom truly happy again, down to her core. We experienced things together for the first time, created new memories, laughed obnoxiously, caught up, healed each other. It was exactly what was needed.
And yes mom - my last travel video set the bar very high, but I think I may have surpassed it with assistance from the motherland. Granted - I am aware the music becomes a little wonky near the end, but even with my magic editing abilities I couldn't fix it - for some god awful reason thats how it was composed.
I hope you all enjoy this - you can click "here" to go to my vimeo page and see it full screen HD (which you all should do because thats how it should be viewed - I'd just advise letting it load completely first).
