I took a two-day trip to Assateague Island recently. For those of you that don’t know, wild horses live on the island. Once a year they are rounded up and the yearlings are auctioned off to raise money for the nature preserve there and to keep their numbers in check. As we were sightseeing around the preserve, I noticed gawkers lining up along the side of the road. I quickly took out my video camera and was lucky enough to stumble upon a roundup in progress!

I also shot some footage of vacationers on and around Assateague’s sister island, Chincoteague, as well as marsh birds and the famous lighthouse and put it all together in a short video. This video is an example of a new trend that I’ve been noticing. Vacation photo albums are being supplemented with dreamy, wordless videos set to music, like this. Some do it well…others not so well. This is my entry into the genre.
