Light-weight slideshows of some places I have visited backed by popular music.
No talking heads, no sensationalism, no drones. All original research i.e., not copied from wikipedia etc.
*Background music:*
All my slideshows are non-commercial. i.e: no advertisements or monetisation when uploaded.
If adverts do appear, they have been placed there by YouTube to compensate music copyright owners; to whom I am grateful for the unpaid use of their work.
If you are the copyright owner of any music track used, please contact me and I will remove that content if requested. I am happy to pay a modest fee for copyrighted music, but it is a nightmare to navigate the many web sites while searching for a simple payment solution for small usage. Please contact me to request a fee, or perhaps a contribution to a charity, for your work.
Music is acknowledged in the description of each video, with links to the source.

A map highlighting the 'Back Country Road' from Balranald to Ivanhoe'; the subject of my latest slideshow video.
*Note:* This is an extract from an old edition Hema map of New South Wales. The entire road is now sealed but, there is no fuel available for the 228 kilometres between the two towns.
The Homebush Hotel at Penarie offers meals, accommodation and refreshments.
Three views including enlargements of the northern and southern sections.

Toowoomba - Past & Present. A practice slideshow on a practice channel. One I used to try out and understand a few things about YouTube videos. It has received over 1200 views - not bad for a one-video channel, initially with no subscribers (now with 15 subs).

The brand new Strath Creek General Store. Impressive Hey?. This is on the site of the Post Office POD depicted in the Strath Creek slideshow at 1:43. It is located at the road junction next to Pioneer Park. How lucky is that community?
