Time Research.

   While surfing the web, I stumbled upon this cool little blog that had a post about time lapse photos.

   Quick translation: The post talks about what time lapse is, links to a neat video, relates time lapse to a video camera, and gives some info about technique.

   I really liked the first two photos of cityscapes, because that is somewhat the idea I think I'm leaning towards for my project.


   The first photo shows a city at different times during the day, and I think it is really cool and effective. The photographer didn't try to blend the lines of the different photos at all, which helps to distinguish between times of day. Although I like that it is chopped up, it is somewhat aesthetically unpleasing in the sky sections. The clouds are my least favorite part of the photo.


   The second photo is better, in my opinion. It is very plain, with not too much subject matter and not too many different photo segments. It is easier on the eye with only 4 sections, rather than the 6 in the above photo. I wish there was more of a transition, however, between the third and fourth photos. The sunset and night scenes have much more of a difference than the others.

   However, I do like these photos, and want to achieve something like this with my photos.
