This is a short video (less than three minutes) I edited using some interesting dusk and nighttime footage taken during rainy season. Set to music by Keane. Hope you enjoy it.

The adventures of an expat American who moved to Bangkok for his husband.
I really enjoyed that! You’re getting pretty good at making these videos and editing them. Bravo.
Nice movie making! I enjoyed that thunderstorm much more than the windstorms we are having – 40 mph gusts…
🙂 Thanks!
Very nice! I love all the trains in the video. What is the Keane song called? I hadn’t heard that one before!Edit: NM, I see what the song is called now 🙂
I am not sure about my reason for thinking, that you were homesick when you made this video. Do you miss home Chris? It’s probably because rain and thunder storms always remind me of home, and I wondered if you thought so too.Very nicely done.
That place looks familiar…perhaps I’ve seen it in a movie somewhere…Hm…I wonder which movie it might be… ;P
@Wangium – Bangkok Dangerous with Nick Cage?@ZSA_MD – Interesting observation. Not homesick but if I had grown up here, I think this is the type of weather I would miss.@TheCheshireGrins – You got it. I even included the handy link at the top of the entry directing you to Amazon.com so you can rush and buy the album! =)@murisopsis – Yes, I’ll take the rain, too. Windstorms, sand storms – yuck!@ElusiveWords – Thank you. All I need now is an actual video camera. Saw a doc last night by a Thai director about tenant rice farmers in Chiang Rai. Shot the whole thing with an HD cam and pumped up the color saturation. I have never seen green rice look so awesome against a blue sky.@yang1815 – Glad you enjoyed it.
You actually saw that movie?
@Wangium – I saw the movie, not bad though.
Chris, that’s a nicely edited piece of work! Love to see your images of Bangkok skyline.
@Wangium – Did not. Just presuming that might have been the movie.@CurryPuffy – Thanks, Gary. Interesting that you have a different profile picture for each comment you post.
Sigh… I do miss the rainstorms in Krungthep although the monsoon storms that we have here in Tucson can be pretty awesome too!
@marc11864 – Yes, I’ve seen those while in Phoenix. Reminiscent of the rains here.
