    The bit I saw looked decent

    Beautiful video !!!

    Galway looked just brilliant.

    I loved the low angle shots, the stormy sea scenes and the music.

    It's a pity the diving board at Blackrock had not had a lick of paint though.

    Well done John McGrath !

    It is a fantastic video and is a great credit to John. The only critic that i have of it, and this is probably just nit picking, but there were a lot of shots from salthill, the docks and the spanish arch. It makes it seem like there is only water to be seen here. But then again some of the nicest parts of galway are around our waterways. :)

    Vimeo FTW! It beats youtube hands down.

    Nicely shot video but the aspect ratio is off and that's just one of those pet peeves, it annoys me so much it ruined the video.

    Pretty much all shot on one stretch of road stretching from the docks to Blackrock. Nice vid all the same.

    The Aspect Ratio is Correct for Viewing on a wide Screen TV, the piece was rendered HD 1080p-Mainly for viewing on the Vimeo Channel on AppleTV, im sorry if it took away from your enjoyment of the piece, i will try and Re-Render for youtube with a 0.000 Square Aspect Ratio, thanks for watching.

    Hi Mike,
    i can see your point about the location shots but it was my intention to show this side i suppose growing up beside the sea has embedded that view with me and as a film maker there is nearly always a "sea" element to my work but i agree that its not all water but for this one it was mainly the theme (see JFK Quote at the Start)
    Thanks for taking the time to watch :)
