Clouds and Moon Timelapse

DonnieDarko

Started out being a moonrise timelapse ... then the clouds unexpectedly rolled in ... which is cool .... I added a track ("Because") from the Beatles "Love" CD ...

Awesome DD. Thanks for sharing. Perfect sound track too.

Thanks for the nice words ... timelapse photography is a hobby of mine and I'm always trying to improve the location and subject (clouds, moon, sun) ... once I put it together and see what it looks like ... then I have so much music to choose from ... it's a form of creativity from a guy who cannot draw, or paint, or sculpt ...

It also allows me to share parts of my world on a site like this ... while we are anonymous ... there is still alot of ourselves that can be shared with others.

Nicely said. You obviously enjoy your hobby.

DonnieDarko

Yes, Tee ... and it helps me see the world differently .... over time people tend to see the world from the same perspective ....

I see my surroundings (particularly the sky and water), not as a still picture, but with movement over time ... clouds give personality and life to the sky, and the subtle onset of night is more apparent. Every day / night is unique.

To do a timelapse video, I need time, a location, a laptop, a tripod and a camera. So it takes preparation, and I often see great photo opportunities when I'm not ready ... which is OK .. at least I'm noticing.

Thanks Lu ... I love when old threads get dug out from the past ...

This was a phase I went through last year when I needed a creative outlet ... The randomness of the clip is what i appreciate most ... as I never know what's gonna happen after I press the start button ...

Also, this is a place that I see every day ... and I really take it for granted, treating it as nothing special ... but just adding motion and music makes it alive and much more interesting ...

I'm happy that you liked it ...
