I know I’m animating like it’s 1999 here, but I’ve developed a recent affection for time-lapse photography. In a small way, it makes us see our world differently. Yesterday, I set up my tripod and took photos of the city at intervals throughout the day. Because I had several meetings and tend to be forgetful, I wasn’t overly careful about the duration of the intervals. There’s also a bit of shakiness between shots–maybe my tripod is a bit dodgy. Click the tiny image for the full size version, which is about 1.7 MB.
If I get a laptop, I’m going to set it up with the camera attached to it. Then I can configure the camera like a webcam, and have it grab an image every x minutes. That would be more accurate and result in less shake.
Locals will recognize the patch of blasted earth where the infamous night club Love Affair used to stand.
whoa. They blew up Luvaffair? Huh. Apparently I haven’t been to that part of town in a while…
That is awesome – thanks. I sent the link to a friend I’ve been trying to get to move back to the end of the continent 🙂
Time-lapse is best when it’s unintentionally jittery. Digital perfection is overated.
Luvaffair… some good memories there, particularly Halloween and 80s nights.
