I’ve created the video with a trial version of the app. so it has a watermark. But if you like the format, I will buy a watermark-free version. Let me know what you think x
Very nice video! It’s been decades since I visited Manchester last, but your video brought back many good memories. 🙂

Thank you. We had an amazing time. The canal area is overrun with wildflowers, graffiti and the memory of the Industrial Revolution. Beautiful.

Derelict spaces have their very own appeal, do they not? So much history right there, speaking to us still in its very own way.

I agree. I love the way the city is repurposing the architecture with sympathetic glass extensions that appear unobtrusive. The wasteland, however, is left with minimum interference. Local communities seem to use many of them for pop up dance and music. The canal area has a crop of artists and photographers, inspired by the ambiance. You can still seem to catch the slow clip-clop of the massive shires horses that used to pull the canal barges.

Glad to have bought back some memories for you. This was my first visit to the city. A forest of cranes tells of the cities rejuvenation in progress. I was impressed by how the old and new sit well together. The industrial past bought into function, with the addition of external glass elevators is one example. Or an art deco building extended with a sympathetic glass extension on the roof. I found the city stimulating and inspiring.

I had a similar impression of vitality, and particularly liked the old, repurposed warehouses close to the waterways.

Beautiful photos! I like the video format, too. I’ll have to put together something similar for my family from our last family vacation–such a great idea, thanks for sharing!

Thank you. Glad my novice attempt inspired you. I’m going to buy the app because it’s so easy to use. The bit you buy converts the .wve to a .mov or other format that’s social media compatible. Sorry my techie side slipped out:)

I live in the States. Manchester looks great. The app was terrific. I loved the music and photos, the animations for changing the scene. The clapping in the music had me dancing in my computer chair. Great post.

How lovely. I’ve not had a chance to visit that area yet. My husband and I have lived for 3 months on Key West. This year we spent a couple of months on Hilton Head, near Savannah. We love be America, and have spent the last 20 years exploring. Still so much to see, it’s huge.

I honeymooned in Key West…oh, let’s see, a long, long time ago now…in 1977. It was a beautiful place.

The tree lined walk was along side the old deep sea dock. A great place to visit. Thank you for your feedback 😊

I enjoyed watching your video and seeing another part of the world! I live not too far from Manchester, New Hampshire. Our city has old repurposed textile mills by the river. In fact, the college I work for has an academic campus located in one of the old mill buildings.
