Orion rising time lapse first try

[Nigel G]

I have been playing around with time lapse photography.

I took 280 - 30s images of Orion rising.

I have done 3 different versions and added them to 1 clip... 1 No trails, 2 short trails, 3 long trails.

I have a feeling I will be doing more as it was fun processing.

Not bad for a first attempt at time lapse.

Hope you like.

Orion rising x 3.mp4

edit. Not sure how to load mp4 ? might have to load to YouTube first :/

Looking good Nige, maybe slow it down a bit.

Next try zooming in on M42 as you follow it

Nice one, what software are you doing the time lapse with?

Thanks.

I'm preparing the images with PS CS2 and timelapseblog-actions-plugin, and the time lapse is with ...Time Lapse Tool. both are free downloads.

Very nice. I think I prefer the 3rd one.

That's a great first attempt Nigel, really nicely done.

For me, I prefer the first one, being able to see the constellations as they rise. Lovely.
