I enjoyed it PA. I'm sorry that you had such a rough reception here.
I was pretty shocked at how unkind some of the responses were.
Perhaps if nothing constructive can be said then it's best to refrain from comment.
I know not everyone here is 'in aviation' but I did think Pilots were supposed to behave like gentlemen.

I know it's not great but I'd love to see you do so much better.

Being my own worst critic, if it was my work I'd be sensible enough not to post it and try to improve on my productions. Do you, in all honesty, believe that your work was worth posting? This is an honest question.

Skipness... you don't have much of a sense of humour do you? Maybe 'cos yoiu're not in aviation.

Who made you video patrol? All you do is come across as a snobby pos to be honest. Quite vile.
Some advice for the cameraman? Get yourself a tripod so you are not filming slanted. Try to stick at one distance during filming, All the zooming in then out then in doesn't tend to work unless you are shooting from a an unrestricted viewpoint with a stable video camera.
If you can maybe buy a scanner and record the audio during shooting, Also try and keep your mic out of the wind. Best advice though is to keep enjoying your hobby, While it isn't something I partake in there is no reason for the clowns above attacking you for enjoying aviation.
cheers

Constructive critique
Sadly, it isn't on of the better spotting videos I've ever seen and as someone else has also pointed out, maybe PPRuNe isn't the website for posting this kind of video even though we have a Spotters Corner section.
1. Get a tripod or monopole for ground shots. These aint much cop for take offs or landings though.
2. Beware, when shooting through a mesh fence with an autofocus camera, the focus will nearly always focus on the fence, not the subject matter (see your BY 757 for example)
Keep trying, the only way is up!
