Toledo Skies 8/14/12 Timelapse

Hope this is ok, thought you all might find it interesting. This is my first real attempt at time lapse photography.
Started recording at 6:25am and stopped at 9:30pm tonight. It's 1 picture every 15 seconds during that time woven into a video.

Note, it wasn't speed up or slowed down. So if you watch the storm from this morning you can see as the front hit and how fast it was moving relative to the video before and after.

Was a nice sunset to boot.

I love how it all changes direction from start to finish.

I especially liked the small puffs of smoke coming from a neighbor's house at the end. Nicely done, INeedCoffee!

That is completely awesome! I've watched it several times. LOVE it!

Did anyone else notice the birds (or something) at about 2:07?

Great, great job! Kudos!

I'm anxious to do this during the winter time for snow accumulation and melt. Thanks for the kind words.

Here is my first test from the day before, only 4 seconds though.

gamergrrl: those were bees :)

I'm working on building a mobile kit I can just take and leave for a day. Would love to try doing some recording from Maumee Bay, Metzgers Marsh, Botanical Gardens, and such.

For now just using my home computer with a camera placed in my window.

That was cool. Sometimes I swear it seems like time goes that fast.

Tonight was especially pretty. Bonus near the end was either jets or a meteor shower (not entirely sure). Transcoding now then will upload to youtube.

Right around the 3 minute mark is the jets.

Appreciate the positive post. Here is the full thing embedded.

I especially love it once the sun is in frame. Very nice.
