Green Laning with a D3 in the Lake District in England

[ellebarto]

We had been planning a trip into the Lakes since before Xmas so even with the bad weather we decided to give it a go. It wasn't ideal filming weather and I had to throw quite a lot of footage away.

It was interesting because of the mix of vehicles. All Land Rovers but with my newer TDCi 110, a 300TDi 90 and then a nice D3, it made for some interesting comparisons.

The D3 was running road tyres and other than having to take a careful line through the rocks and its electronics scrabbling for traction here and there, it coped admirably!

Just as an aside, a few people (quite a lot really) have said my films get spoilt by the cheesy license free music I use (Porn Styley even). So I had a go at creating my own for this film. Any opinions from people who have seen my earlier stuff would be appreciated?

Nice film! :D Thanks for sharing.

You're asking the wrong person about the music. I thoguht it was just fine and complemented the visuals, but i didn't mind the old music either. :shock:

Pretty much not going to be able to please everyone with the music but I think this works. Perhaps a bit canned, kind of reminds me of a Mercury outboard infomercial. It's your film and you are doing a great job with all the camera angles so who cares what the critics think. :wink:

Thanks for the feedback guys. I guess anything that hasn't been in the charts is always going to be a little week but I'll keep experimenting making my own and see how it works!
