My star view is really limited from my balcony, but luckily there seems to be many things that can get time-lapsed.
I think it's a cool artistic medium.
Working on a slider mechanism too... slowly.

www.hackaday.com has done a few builds on how to pan during a timelapse, and a ton of other cool photo hacks. Really they have a ton of cool hacks for a ton of stuff, most of them I have no idea what I would ever need it for but still want to build them.

That's cool Mario. I love the contrast of the sky and clouds with the sunrise being a real surprise.

Nice Mario, what interval were you shooting, and what was the ouput framerate? That speed on the stars worked well. Is that about 25mm focal length?

Mario, for some reason I thought when it down to fractions of a sec, it was out of 0.30 (my editor is that way at least). So 0.08 would be like 4 frames per second right? Maybe Movie Maker does it differently.

Well, do the math. The lapse is 297 frames I think... 24 second long clip. 12.375 frames per second

Nice Mario! I still haven't tried one on Aperture Priority, but yours seems to do well!
Maybe tomorrow.

I would love to eventually get adobe premiere (maybe once I get a machine that can really handle video editing), but for now I have powerdirector 10. Works pretty well.

Just curious, do you have a can holder somewhere on the left side?
This is an aggressive post. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate a post of this quality and depth.
