North to Alaska Video's

OK, I'm no video photographer, so sue me already!

These were taken on the train up the canyon out of Skagway to the gold mining fields. The train was a narrow gauge, and damn it was not only a steep incline (for a train) at up to 3.9% but there wasn't much room and ledge dug out for it either! Would not want to be in a derailment event on this ride! We passed into Canada but since we didn't get off the train no customs or such needed.

Not sure what I was thinking in the middle video where I tilted the camera to get a better shot of the stream we crossed, guess I figured it would just rotate itself for proper orientation like with a still shot! Ha Ha! Now if I could just figure out how to rotate the frames to compensate then rotate them back, That would be cool!
Oh, and the same one where we enter a tunnel and it all goes black, well we Do come out again, it just takes a bit to get to the other end, guess I should edit out that part of it, eh?







Enjoy (hopefully, somewhat, perhaps????? ) Ha Ha!

Oh, and they, along with a few more are now on youtube on the TheDrFork channel I created for myself.
