Wonderful! Thank you so much, sunshine! I love the vid. And I wish I could figure out why my master post won't come out correctly. Happy days!

Fab vid! Haven't had time to read the story yet but just had to look at this and thought it was great. I love the Sid Halley novels and you've blended the footage from the Racing Game with our lads brilliantly. A great start to October, thank you :)

OMG, how beautiful this vid is!!!! I love downwind's fix so much and this vid made me want to read this badly!!!! Thank you so much for this wonderful vid! Look at the rear shot of Doyle! It's him!! Thank you!!!

[ali15son.livejournal.com]

what a gorgeous and beautifully made video ...very touching and so lovingly put together ...thankyou so much x

[moonlightmead.livejournal.com]

Oh, that was a smashing vid! Love the moments you picked, and I am looking forward to reading the story! And those horses - aww! Liked the blending of different pieces - do I guess there will be emeralds to look forward to? And, hee, brilliant imagery with hands and wrists!

Awesome opening to the Big Bang; thanks so much!

Magnificent video! Love this song and the clips. I am now raring to read the story! I love your dark/light choice for the horses, and the use of slo-mo and all the lovely effects - beautifully chosen examples of togetherness!

[msmoat.livejournal.com]

Oh, nice, intriguing vid for the story! You did a fabulous job with the crossover aspects, and I love al the effects. Horses! Horses--with-Lads! What could be better? *g* But also, the music and the images with the slow pans really worked to set up a mood of devotion between the lads. Lovely. Thank you!

Now to find time to read the story!

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou! I highly recommend 'The Racing Game' for anyone who hasnt seen it especially for Dick Francis fans. It works really well alongside Pros footage.

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Oh Wow what a lovely compliment from a true master! You will be sadly missed this year minori. As for that rear shot, I do have happy dreams about that rear shot ...

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou Alison, it was a joy to make this one.

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Yes there be emeralds. And lashings and lashings of cheeky sex. And horses. Oh and did I mention the cheeky sex?

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou! I think I'm just about done now on vids with horses, which is a shame as there's something about Doyle and horses I find rather compelling ...

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou. Yes you must find time to read the story as it's really rather scrummy!

[loxleyprince.livejournal.com]

ACE video!!! I love how you have the racehorse and rider in black and white shadow! The arabians are beautiful (as are *cough cough* Bodie and Doyle, naturally.) This is a lovely bit of artwork to kick off the 2015 PROs BB. WELL DONE, dear!

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

What a fabulous vid! It's so beautiful and intriguing all at once - you've made me want to gobble up the fic this instant!

[halotolerant.livejournal.com]

Lovely vid and a great advert for a fic - very intriguing and sets up a lovely mood of devotion. I'm not familiar with 'The Racing Game' but it looks like the kind of show I'd like, and it's great to get a sense of those characters through these clips before reading the fic. Great stuff! *g*

[haritaellea.livejournal.com]

Brilliant bid! Wonderful editing and such clever and apt use of slo mo and so many cool effects! Loved the emotions between the lads, just beautiful. The Racing Game is a mystery land for me but I'm definitely intrigued. So well done, my dear friend, a great start of the BB!

[merentha13.livejournal.com]

What a terrific vid!! So much emotion in the scenes you've chosen and the music and the special effects. Well done!

[allegra82.livejournal.com]

This is wonderful! Many great scenes, fab editing ideas! And extra points for the view of Doyle's derrière in those patched jeans... *g*

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

It was extremely important that she added the shot with the patch --it's mentioned early on in the story!

[minori-k.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you for your lovely message! I am sure I will join next year Pros BB if it will be held!

[boothros.livejournal.com]

There was *ahem* a 'tecnical' reason why the horse and rider where done in black and white. I'll let you all read the story first before revealing it.

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou. It sure is a great read :)

[boothros.livejournal.com]

It is a good watch for any 70s fan. It was a series (way back in the days of Yorkshire Television!) based on the Sid & Chico stories. I'd forgotten that I'd ever seen it until I saw a few scenes and then it all came floating back to me through the mists of time.

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou, Sunshine, don't look now, but it's you next! xx

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou merentha, it's also you next!

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Oh those jeans ...

[bodiecuddle.livejournal.com]

What a wonderful, brilliant vid. Its a masterpiece. The horses are amazingly fitting. Love it.  * head bowing* . Thanks for this xx

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou my lovely. I always appreciate hearing from one of my true idols, and you are that one. Thanks so much for commenting xxx

[krisserci5.livejournal.com]

Very nicely done. . . .great introduction to the story.!!!!

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Thankyou Krisser. I really enjoyed making this one, so much lovely imagery to work with.

[sw33n3y.livejournal.com]

What a lovely video! You've done a wonderful job of setting the scene and drawing us into the story. Nice use of effects to alter the mood also. Thank you! :D

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Oh thanks SO much. It's always lovely to hear from someone I really admire. I do have to admit that this one almost made itself really. There was more lovely imagery than I could wave a stick at thanks to Dawns great writing.

[firlefanzine.livejournal.com]

A very interesting video with many good effects.
I don't know the story yet, and I've never read the Sid Halley novels, but I'm very curious now. :-)

Thank you so much!

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

I am a bit behind with my commenting but wanted to make sure I said congrats on posting the first post in the 2015 BB.

[loxleyprince.livejournal.com]

I've read the story now. Tell me! Tell me! (Pretty please? :-) *looks at you with puppy-Doyle eyes*

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Wow, you remembered that? Ah well, what happened was, in the story, Dawnwind had Sid ride off on a white horse. On the Racing Game DVD, he's riding off from somewhere on a brown horse. So I say, Dawnwind, 'not even I can make a brown horse white'. (Which of course was the wrong answer)...

[loxleyprince.livejournal.com]

Bwahahaha!!! What a BRILLIANT solution to the problem!!! :-)

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Really? Well that's alright then. Yay. Go me. ;)

[loxleyprince.livejournal.com]

Yay!!! indeed!

[kiwisue.livejournal.com]

I already said it back at that "other place" *cough*, but I did like this very much. I thought you did a great job to build a vid that reflected the storyline so well. Very effective combining of images from different sources, and I enjoyed the music selection.
