Easily enjoy your travel photos April 10, 2022, 06:27:49 am Since giving up my Ultimate Campgrounds project, I find myself with time to curate all our photos from our LD travels. I have thousands of them on my computer, but that's not really conducive to quick and easy viewing on the large screen TV in the living room. I have been experimenting with PowerPoint, with which one can make up first a photo album and then that album can be converted to a video that can be played on a smart TV. You can make it as fancy or simple as you like, setting transition types and timing, for example. And no, I don't include every photo - pick the best. For example, I have about about 200 pix from the Balloon Fiesta a few years ago - those got whittled down to about 50. I find that a 7-second pause on each image seems to be good, so a 50-slide presentation is only about 6 minutes. Not so long that everyone gets bored.
