Time Lapse Photography
I know Dan made a time lapse of this drive to Alaska last year.. how did he do it? I have been messing round with QuicktimePro7 its really easy to create the lapse but it ends up being .mov and not a .gif.
Maybe I should be using some sort of video software .... Beech do you have any suggestions?
My input files will be jpg

That looks like a simple cross fade transition in a video editor.
Make each picture duration equal to the transition and it will
appear to animate the picture.
The legnth of the transion/duration will dictate the tempo of the animation.
Nicely done btw.Please buy my book - "Paiute ATV Trail Guide" at www.atvutah.com - I need gas money!!!!

That looks excellent! What did you end up using, if you don't mind saying?
This time lapse I did of assembling a trampoline was 1 photo every 10 seconds, then dropped them all into Pinnacle Studio. I batch cropped and resized the pics in Paint Shop Pro first, then did a couple of short fades in Studio. Very happy with how it turned out.

I got just over 40min worth of exposure in the Uintas this weekend before the clouds rolled in. I think I got the hang of this now.....

I made this a few years ago, my buddy and I building a fort for his kids.
This is one of those "designed in Hell" manufactured in "we no speak engrish" kits. All the labels fell of the wood and it took us four days just to sort out the parts to match the really bad instructions.
Edited together using Monkeyjam software, which is free.
Notice at one point his son approached the camera. What I liked about monkeyjam was that it was really easy to make him pause and linger in the video simply by making one frame repeat a lot more times than the others.
You can simply go to the frame and tell it to repeat n times.
Did the same thing at the end.
Took me maybe 20 minutes to edit this sequence.
His kids make me watch it everytime I visit.

LoL nice one! OK here is a tank shooting a shotgun blast of tungsten balls. How they got a camera to track this is beyond my understanding.

Summit thats pretty cool.
Did you just line up north on a compass as the center of the shot?
Planning to try some night work on thousand lake mt next week.
Any advice on manual settings for star shots?
Thinking if I hold the shutter open a bit longer the video will look more like the stars are streaking than moving individually.
Found some great looking time laps of stars here

Summit thank you.
It looks like I will have a new moon on the 20th so it should be plenty dark.
I should be able to get some sunrises over CR NP as well.Please buy my book - "Paiute ATV Trail Guide" at www.atvutah.com - I need gas money!!!!
