Happy 40th National Day to the United Arab Emirates :)

Why have just one moonset and one sunrise when you can have two of each?

Please don't steal this.

    I liked this video a while ago & was sad when it was taken down. Glad to see it back!

    I hear day to night transitions are tricky to get right. Any tips for newbies?
  • Gerald Donovan plus 2 months ago
    Hi Joe -

    The entire timelapse was shot on aperture priority and fixed ISO.

    It's important to make sure that you set a combination of aperture and ISO that will allow the camera to take shots at the brightest time of day without hitting the camera's fastest shutter speed limit, and will also not require a shutter speed longer than the timelapse interval when it's dark.

    This was shot at f/5.6 and ISO320. Fastest shutter speed was 1/2500, slowest 6 seconds.

    Fascinating... What is that band of light seen traveling down the tower at 0:02 and again at 2:05 ?
  • Gerald Donovan plus 2 months ago

    very nice - Especially the transition from Night to day (and from day to night' and again).

    Question: What did the camera run from? a battery (a big one, i guess)? did you have to change it? from the wall power?
