Need your Help!
Chris Oliver is a Writer, Director, Editor and Videographer. His company is CCO

Chris has produced the following video that features my business. It is entitled “A CFDC Success Story - Murray's Story – Ontario” or found on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaFY4HQEnQc
As you will see this video is about my personal connections with the
Northumberland CFDC and how much they helped me with the starting up and
running of Misty Hollow Carving.
In 2008 my dream to launch a business became a reality.
This year and in these few short days, until May 23rd, this
next Wednesday, there is a small competition taking place. This video that Chris produced will be
possibly shown (as the winner) at the National AGM of the CFDC (Community
Futures Development Corporation) from across Canada.

Today’s Blog Post
But I don’t need one – do I? Oh Boy
“What does this button do?”
I pressed it and the new menu came up. “Whoa!
What happens when you push this next one?’
I pressed or selected the new one and
something different happened.
I wish they would have sent along an
instruction manual with this camera!
The camera is actually on my Cell Phone which
I usually use for communication with people. I seldom use the camera part – so I
never take time to become familiar with it.
Bingo – I learned something new. This camera
can shoot some amazing shots that were never possible on other cameras. What
will they think of next.
I stood at the edge of the Little Lake and
looked at what I just captured on my small Cell Phone. Now I could email these from my Cell Phone to
whoever was on my list – and all my email addresses are there. The Cell Phone
would quickly change the image to a smaller size to send… and away it would go.
I decided against that and when I came home I
pulled the tiny card from the side of Cell Phone and transferred it to the Computer…
manipulated it to a smaller size for this Blog and there it is for all to
see. Too cool!
I stood beside the lake last evening thinking
of how much things have changed in my short life. Just with cameras alone it
has been staggering… let alone everything else.
Here are some of my shots... plus using the amazing Panoramic feature...
I am older now and much wiser. I am also out
of date. I don’t like all the rapid changes but can get used to the idea – if it
would only come slower.
My Cell Phone as amazing as it is… is now OLD….
And I have had it only a few months.
The new Cell Phones can let me watch as much
TV as I would like to…making the buying of a new $600 to $1000 TV useless! The new Cell Phone is dirt cheap.
But I don’t need one – do I? Oh Boy – this getting
old is too fast.
