Not a bad little video someone put together. Some really nice shots of the region.

Re: A Charming Video (w/ sound) on the Douro and Port
I thought "charming" was an apt description. The images and music were nice. However, while technically a video, the images were all still, just zoomed and panned, and YouTube video size and compression really doesn't do them justice. I also thought it got a little weak at the end. I really liked the photo of the barco rabelo in the fog.

Re: A Charming Video (w/ sound) on the Douro and Port
Yes: really nice and, I agree, "charming" is an excellent term. Interesting that there were more shots of white wine than red (at least up until the end).

What I enjoyed most is that at each part of the lyrics, when it talks about the grapes, there are photos of the grapes, when talking about being in the lagares, there are the pictures, and the same for lyrics of harvest and other parts of the song.
Well done, nice slow movement of the still photos which are not over manipulated and well, charming.
