Tim's Reflection Connection

There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

On occasion you see something so breath-taking you don’t have adequate words to describe it.  It’s jaw dropping.  Stunning.  I had that experience when I first saw the HD series, Earth, on Blu-ray. The photography was beyond anything I had imagined before. Well, I suspect that Tom Lowe’s (@timescapes) time lapse project, which he has been [...]

I love time lapse photography!  This time lapse by twin brothers Dan and David Newcomb has some spectacular shots in it featuring HDR as well as some awesome dolly and pan shots!  (They design and build their own rigs.) The undulating fog is spectacular! When you watch it, be sure to click on the full [...]

Mike Davidson (of Mike Industries) created a blog documenting his “first-hand chronology of the design, planning, and construction of a modern home in Seattle.”  He leaves no stone unturned as he presents the cost of every aspect of the project, frequent posts throughout the project from planning to tear down to completion, complete with a [...]

This time lapse of Baja, California, by Mike Flores is pretty cool work. I especially appreciate the attention to the music cue and the sunrise about two-thrids of the way through. On his Vimeo site, Mike says: This is a little compilation of timelapses I’ve shot down in Baja California this year. There’s a mix [...]

This time lapse of San Francisco, by Simon Christen, was shot over a one year period and is quite beautiful. Related articles: San Francisco Bay: The Unseen Sea (current.com)

About a month ago they measured. This week they installed. The shutters completely change the feeling of the living room.  Tim likes. Here you have about 4 hours of worked distilled into 1 minute and 20 seconds. Enjoy.  

So nicely done. Be sure to check out Phil’s post on the setup for this time lapse. He includes a 12 minute audio podcast about it as well at: Phil’s Blog Post.  Oh, and watch this in full screen mode.  

This is as much to help me remember this as it is to share the info with all humanoids oninterwebs… This is the post production process I used when creating the Malaga Cove time lapse shorts.  After importing the footage from the camera into the computer: QuickTime Pro 7 ›› File ›› Open Image Sequence… [...]

This is the second time lapse I shot at Malaga Cover yesterday.  This one was shot at ISO 100 with a 5 second interval and includes a bit of panning.  As you can see from the comment at the other Malaga Cove time lapse, I met lots of interesting people yesterday morning. So, here is [...]

I mentioned in my post yesterday about this time lapse, that I wasn’t able to get a transition from complete darkness to light because I shot this time lapse so close to today — the longest day of the year, and you can’t park your car until 5:00am. At any rate, here is the first [...]

This morning I got up really early (3:45AM) to shoot a time lapse of the Galaga Cove along the Palos Verdes Shoreline Preserve. Unfortunately, the area is not open for parking until 5AM; so, as tomorrow is the longest day of the year, I missed the transition from complete darkness to sunrise. It was already [...]

And I mean out of the city. Tom Lowe shares some astounding time lapse work from out in the desert. He also has a couple of breath-taking HD versions available for download at his site, Timescapes. Just awesome! You have to watch these full screen!

Everyone knows of my growing interest in time lapse.  Here’s a new twist from Ross Ching:  shoot time lapses of LA’s highways and take out all of the cars!  The amount of time Ross had to spend in post masking out the cars using Photoshop and FCP is probably less than I imagine but at [...]

I hadn’t come across Sean Stiegemeier’s work until I saw this astounding time lapse of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano erupting. Not only do you see stunning imagery from nature, but his use of the motorized dolly really brings this to life. And the still life of the old bullet riddled plane… Way awesome. Amazing work! No [...]
