Not too bad Jack, I would have slightly moved the camera with the wind,
to get a slight blurring.

Talking aobut wind on spring bank holiday, I went a walk along a nearby
countryside canal, in the distance on an hill about half a mile away was
the long green wheat blowing in waves. It really did look like a green
sea, with wave after wave of billowing grass.

Typically I didn't have my camcorder with me!
