Time Lapse Photography

We linked to a teriffic video ad for Google, and found this not long after.  It's a video of time-lapse photography, in this case city scenes.  Very cool.

As with the Google video, it's interesting to note the huge impact that music has.  A single photograph stands alone fine, but moving pictures benefit tremendously (and you could say are transformed by) the accompanying music.

In this time-lapse video from Dominic Boudreault, you might recognize the music:  "Time", from the musical score to the movie Inception, composed by Hans Zimmer.

Cities included are Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, New York City (Manhattan), and Chicago.

Cool Timelapse Video of Antarctic Expedition

Very cool video of the 54th Russian Antarctic Expedition, shot using time lapse photography.

I want to go there so badly....it's my last continent to visit, and I'd love to see the Emperor Penguins. Need to get my dry suit certification first, though!
