Moonlapses

I've finally gotten around to assembling 'real' timelapses out of individual images that I've photographed. Naturally, I started with my favorite subject, the Moon. 

The individual photographs for the full-Moon video looked like this:

And the final product—like this:

Vine's square format is bothersome, but it seems to retain a slightly higher resolution than the Instagram version.

I photographed the second timelapse tonight and assembled it so as to resemble vintage sci-fi films (including the soundtrack). The individual images I shot look like this:

The final video turned out like this:

Yet again, the Instagram widescreen version is worth referencing in terms of the way this mini-film is meant to be seen, excluding the resolution reduction.

Here Comes / There Goes the Sun

These two fun little timelapses were shot a half hour or so apart from each other, but what a difference did that make!

First, brilliant rays of the descending Sun nearly blinded me as I filmed this.

Next, the blood-orange of the sky rapidly transformed into an even blue, as the Sun set behind the mountain peak.

Silent Night

The night of Western Christmas Eve was so fittingly still that when I attempted to film a timelapse of the wintry landscape at dusk without the decorations below, I could not see any movement at all, save for some barely detectable snowflakes coming down.
