Great work Tom, I really like the night sky shots.

Wanderful!

My head was subconsciously looking for a pivot point. I loved how for 2 secs you've successfully twirled me around the North Star 1:20. It wasn't as strong on the 1:17th being off centre.

You're a Jedi Master! Breathtaking work!!
Thanks for sharing.

You're a freaking god!

wow
crazy world we live on

How on earth did you manage that with a DSLR? Brilliant. Please let me know how you did it.

wow is all i can say
I am speechless

One of the best timelapses Ive seen on here. I want to try this with my wifes XTi or my 40D but I'm scared I would get addicted to them and blow out my shutter.

Absolutly amazing. I loved it! I am looking forward to more.

WOW !!!! Very well done.

Good work!

Amazing.

Thanks for all the kind words.

Lucasberg, these shutters can take a lot of abuse. A guy I know has run his Rebel XT for like 250,000 exposures already with no trouble!

impressive... nice!

Am i watching Baraka ?

haha

this is really great Tom

thanks. yeah a fellow over at reduser is putting together a major baraka- or planet-earth style documentary and i have been begging him to bring me along. :)

That was amazing! :)

Yeah, Fricke is the One.

This is awesome! Great photos turned into video, good music selection! Many kudos!

absoulutly amazing
perfect amazing and smooth panning...
what movie editor do you use?

The "pans" are done in Adobe After Effects or Premiere Pro. Premiere Pro CS3 is amazing; it can do some motion and time remapping that I used to do only in AE.

Great work, congratulations!
I also love your night sky shots.

What can I add that hasn't been said already.
Bro, would you be intrested in shooting our next music vdo? A whole music vdo shot on a DSLR. How amazingly crazy would that be :)

peace

this is fantastic tom. i love the compositions.

what's that piece of music? It's epic.

sweet. you could see that as stock footage. great exposure at night.

Ayz, it's Battle of the Heroes by John Williams.

Guilmette, it will be up at Getty footage in a couple of weeks. ;)

Dude, that was freaking incredible!

I am absolutely speechless!!!!
Really Stunning!

this you can actually see how the earth move; amazing.

the ones with the stars were quite incredible

WOW - lot of work and patience involved in that - Congrats - Very nice compilation.

Truly enjoyed the clips. Great exposures. Not easy to perfect. Great work. Keep it up...

simply beautiful

what software have you used to create the frequency of frames??

I use Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, but any non-linear editing system like Sony Vegas, Final Cut, etc, will work. You just make a 24 frames per second project (or 25 or 30), and when you drop the images onto the timeline they are automatically spaced out correctly. You can then speed them, slow them down, or reverse them.

amazing work...

this was amazing, i felt like i was watching something from national geographic, i enjoyed this :)

Totally brilliant fella! You have a great eye for the dramatic as well as the technical, which is a great combo to have,.

Thanks for sharing your brilliant work. Avey

Sounds like Star Wars

god god god god god god 8)

amazing, i love the music to ! it s seem to be a part of a spielberg movie you know !

thanks

Magnificent work. Music completes this. Gratz ;)

Can you give us an idea of how you do those virtual pans in after effects? Are you using a specific effect? or technique?

thanks.

timelapseforum, are you aware we have a timelapse forum going?

timescapes.org/phpBB3/index.php

You're welcome any time.

As far as the virtual pans, all you have to do is set position keyrames, one at the beginning, and one at the end, then move the frame across the comp. Very easy once you figure it out. Actually, Premiere Pro can do the same thing, too.

Hope that helps.

AAAAMazing. Keep up the good works Tom. I sure like to learn how to do that...lol.

Great work!! Especially the shots with the starfield and trees in the night look really impressive and mystical... Well done!
It reminds me a little bit on the film "koyanisqaatsi". Have you seen it? Amazing stuff!

Yeah, I love Koyanisqaatsi. That film and Baraka are huge, huge inspirations for me.

This is stunning stuff Tom. You're an inspiration - so much that I had a go myself with my 350D and Premiere Pro too! Keep it up!

Very nice work. How many days did this take?

Tom I dont know how I missed seeing this before now but this is one of the best timelapse Ive ever seen.

Awesome work man!!!!
