Banff and My 1st Video- YIKES!

02. Mar, 2010 14 Comments

Oh, what was I thinking!! I am so unbelievably camera shy, and here I am shooting my first video. The idea was to do videos for my 2yr old niece while I travel, so I’m hoping this whole process will become less embarrassing as time goes by. Oh, please let this get less embarrassing! Check it out for yourself and try not to laugh too hard! haha

Okay, so now that the embarrassing part is over, it’s over right?! Let me tell you a little bit about Banff.  As I mention in the video, Banff is very touristy and therefore very expensive in some respects.  However there are some amazing vistas.  Whenever I feel the need to grab my camera and get away, I usually end up in Banff.  Below are some of the photos I took while in Banff today.

    As always Pam your photos are awesome. I love how clear that water looks, I can only imagine what its like face to face.

    The video is way cool I need to man up and make one myself :) Looking forward to your next one now.

    I was pretty shy when we first started doing videos too, but don’t worry, you get less and less nervous the more you do them. and your video was great- I can’t believe you were the only person out there- how awesome! Can’t wait to see more.

    Great job on the first video!! You did very good in front of the camera, some vloggers out there just seem to nervous or too rehearsed! You were relaxed & calm, great stuff!
    Those caves look very cool, I have never been to Banf but if I do get there they are now definitely on my list! I also love that they don’t cost much to see! haha
    Were you driving and filming at the same time? haha
    Can’t wait for the next one! :)

    Pam, you did great! You have a journalist’s voice, sounds like you could be hosting the CBC news, hahaha. Banff is on my radar for this summer, I want to go SO BADLY. Too bad it’s cheaper for me to fly to like…BANGKOK. Christ.

    So good! Absolutely loved it.
    Enjoyed the video – that’s a nice touch on a travel blog.
    Your photos look like postcards.
    Well done!
