This was shot from the window of a train, travelling from Romsey to Salisbury, Wiltshire, shortly after leaving Romsey, with a Canon Ixus 70. That's a big cloud.

It is a magical experience, to travel on South West Trains for only 40 seconds. The music is by me, done mostly with an Alesis Micron, a free VST sampler called Shortcircuit, and M-Tron, a VST Mellotron simulation. Spot the CR-78 samples!

It's a little bit like "London to Brighton in Four Minutes", a classic BBC film from 1952 that used to be shown in between the programmes. Back in 1952 I would have been very lucky to own a camera, I certainly wouldn't have been able to make this film or show it to anybody. You had to be pretty hardcore to be a filmmaker in Britain in 1952, either very rich or very driven, or well-connected, or very talented, or very lucky. Not like today, although none of those things hurt, exactly.

At about 00:20 (why does it count down?) there's a shot of a church that might have been a good still photo.
