Very nice - well done matching lyrics to images. One of my favorite early Lightfoot songs, btw. Here's the description posted with the video:

This may be some of the best 2:08 minutes of Gordon Lightfoot and is one of the first of his tunes I learned to play on the 6 string. The " Old Love of mine"...may well be the wilderness of the Canadian Shield. He loves Ontario and the majestic lakes rivers and streams of Canada. I chose to set this song in the fall of the year.

The last scene ( to the words "somewhere on a mountain") is a panorama from Ishpatina Ridge...the height of land north-west of The City of Temiskaming Shores- Dymond,New Liskeard,Haileybury and North Cobalt.
This is the heighest point of land in Ontario. Waters to the north of this ridge flow to James Bay-Hudson Bay. Waters to the south of this ridge flow to The Great Lakes and the Ottawa River. This video meets VPG Standards.
