All the videos on my website are embedded from Youtube. From what little information I can find Youtube is testing turning off videos for certain users that are not logged into a Youtube account or using a VPN to view videos. If you have a Youtube account, please try logging in and see if you can then view the videos on https://mvotd.com. If you're using a VPN, try turning it off to view the videos. There are a few other work arounds but they are pretty confusing to use. If you have the skills you might try searching Google for "Youtube Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" for a fix. I didn't see any that looked easy. Our best hope is that Youtube completes their test and realizes this is a big mistake. Until then, please check in daily to see if you still getting the error message. Sorry it took so long to figure out what was going on with this. Mel
Description
Hello everyone and welcome back to Mystery Scoop. A seven year old boy acquired a photographic camera in 1901 and made history. Jacques Henri Lartigue, was a French photographer and painter, most famous for his photographs of the leisure activities of France’s middle and upper classes in the early 20th century. He was one of the first artists to use the Kodak Brownie camera for snapshots, photographing in the early stages, his friends and family playing, racing, making kites, gliders and moving on to other numerous sporting and fashion activities at the time. Lartigue often captured his subjects mid-gesture as in real life, creating a new visual language for the 20th Century. He is often referred to as "The boy who photographed La Belle Époque of France". He continued taking photographs and maintained written journals about them throughout his life. He only became internationally famous in his late years, when his photography work was discovered and exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, in 1963. Lartigue left behind more than 100,000 photographs, 7,000 diary pages and 1,500 paintings.
