some of the best work I've seen on this site. great job.
Stephen Lewis 3 years ago

OMG I love this! What were the image size / intervalometer settings?
Sean Stiegemeier 2 years ago

Settings were kind of all over the place. The night shots were 30 sec exposures every 2 minutes. Day was every 15seconds for some. 30 and 45 for others.

Nikio 3 years ago

Awesome! What was the camera? Could you tell us the trick to spin camera around its axis so smoothly?
Thanks!
Sean Stiegemeier 2 years ago

Cameras were 5D, 5D Mark II, 1ds Mark II. Panning shots were just with a cheap telescope head. It worked ok, but some motion blur with the long exposures.
Dmitry Kochetkov 3 years ago

It's just fantastic! I liked so much!!!
MILapse 3 years ago

Excellent work! Nice use of HDR but a little trouble with the flicker (so hard to chase out of the process I know...) Please join us at timescapes.org!
Sean Stiegemeier 2 years ago

Yea the HDR stuff is a nightmare with the color and shading crap that it pulls on me. I think as long as the light doesnt change dramatically like at sunsets it works but otherwise it gets crazy.
Frederic Vercammen 3 years ago

John Graeme Morris 2 years ago

Stunning, fantastic work!. The flicker is a problem though... there are a number of solutions for combating flicker in time lapse sequences.. Shake for one, or GBdeflicker plug-in for After Effects (Windows only).

Great work... can"t wait to see more!

Oman Mirzaie 2 years ago

Nice job man, love it!! Just thought the hdr was a little overdone at times and would have been much more dramatic if you had of had some sky passing over shots of star trails etc. Anyway love it!

It seemed a little "jerky" at times, though.
