How to Shoot "Time Interval Single Frame"
I was trying “Time Interval Single Frame“ photograph for quite some time but never got satisfying results because of certain mistakes...So here what I learnt from my mistakes and finally achieved what I was looking for:
1. Decide how big Time Interval Single frame shot you want...According to that decide your start and end time..
2. Usually I love to shoot from daytime to Golden Hour to Blue Hour and Final Shot of Night...But if you want so you can start from morning too when you get Night-Blue-Golden and then Daytime...
3. Using of Tripod is compulsory because you want all shots from same angle. It helps in overlapping the shots in Photoshop.
4. Settings is not so Important.It depends on you how and what setting you want to use. Only thing you have to take care is that while changing exposure setting,do not change the aperture as it may affect Depth of Field. Change the shutter speed and since the camera is mounted on tripod work with lowest ISO.
5. Choose interesting subject and try to avoid shooting against Sunset-sunrise as it will turned your some shots into silhouette or may be you loose details on backlit shots...
6. After shooting your all Convert/Edit them the way you want. It is not necessary that editing settings are same for all the shots.
7. After Edit Open all your shots on Photoshop By Stacking or Automate>Photomerge (But Unclik "Blend Images Together" because you do not want to merge them right now .At this stage you just want the software put them on each other and align.)
8. Now after Aligning them on Layer place them on Time Sequence like you shoot...
9. Now select the part you want on final photo and press Ctrl+Shift+I then Delete Delete...Now Select 2nd Photo and again select portion you want on second frame and press Ctrl+Shift+I then Delete to remove other Deselcted Portion...Carry on the Method till your last Photo Layer..( Keep saving PSD and Edit them on Duplicate Layers so that you have already alligned Non Cropped Version)
10. In last just Merge your All layers and save them on JPEG/TIFF or Any Format you want....
