A couple of years ago, I arrived at the viewing point for the ever faithful Old Faithful geyser in Yellowstone National Park. I awaited eagerly for this spectacle of nature to start. And it did, on time. I was mesmerized to see water spouting off this hole in earth reaching 40-50 ft in the air. Inspite of the gloomy grey weather, this display lifted my spirits. And ever since I left that place, I had been longing to get back. Hopefully, under better conditions.

And that I did, on the July 4th long weekend. Amazing weather trailed us for the 3 days I spent in the park. In fact, I couldn't have asked for better weather while I was in this beautiful park. Especially on the day I visited the main geyser basin. It was just amazing!.

This time, instead of getting the same cliched shot as everyone, I decided to shoot a timelapse. I, however, underestimated how long the geyser would last and decided to shoot every 2 seconds instead of 1, resulting in this fleeting impression of this wonderous production. The two jerks in the beginning - that was due to the Old Faithful not being faithful enough!.

Another location I had intended to see was the magnificent colors of the Grand Prismatic Spring. While the close-up perspective looks great, a slightly overhead view from the nearby hill is even more spectacular, as you get to see the deep colors of the geyser and the activity of the people visiting it, which I found especially fascinating when wound up at this speed.

Finally, I knew I wanted to capture something special at Yellowstone lake, but did not know what that was. When I got to West thumb Geyser basin, I got an epiphany: it was going to be the thunderstorm seemingly brewing on the southeastern horizon of the lake. A boardwalk overlooking a hot spring was the perfect location for it (the small vibrations visible are due to people walking rather adamantly on the boardwalk!)

I wanted to capture more slices of this lovely park, but limited time afforded only so many opportunities.

Timelapse

We went out for a night shoot saturday afternoon so we did the sunset too

The moon rose around 9pm as we made our way back

I thought I might have a play with timelapse around the fire

I sat around the fire until nearly 3am

Its very nice when its cold

I set the alarm for a few hours later

The clear skies had cloud moving through and some colour

So I decided to do some more

I spaced the time between the shots closer as the cloud was moving quite nicely and with the fire in the FG you have two areas to watch the changes

I set it to take 20 frames and reset it to 50 frames and went off shooting the sunrise and liz started it again and I took a few at the end

There is 121 frames in this and I slowed it to 25% so that it lengthened the video so you can enjoy it a little more

You can get it to zoom in and out and to pan but I am having trouble figuring that out yet

I went through and adjusted the light in lightroom then exported the jpegs to a folder and renamed them in order so they could be loaded into the timelapse video in photoshop

I will have to keep learning some more

I have some star shots at the house last month that I captured manually without setting the controller that I could put together

This is also saved in the low quality setting to keep the file size down

Then there is a million ideas that you could do this with day and night

This is a still frame from my recently completed timelapse film Timelapse London which is up now on Vimeo. It's the result of many months of standing around in the cold trying to capture some of my favourite views around the city.

Timelapse South of the I70

primera prueba de timelapse... y tal vez la última!

Another attempt at timelapse. It was bright sun light and i have no filters, so i could not lower the shutter speed below 1/650, so i could not use Mr whites advice of a slow shutter . This time I used a rock to steady it but there are still a few wobbles. One photo about every 5 seconds for 10 minuets. I'll keep trying and one day i might get it right.

The clouds cleared for most of totality at least.

Equipment: Nikon D5300, Tamron SP 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD lens, and iOptron Skytracker. Each frame is at 300mm, f/8.0, ISO 400, 4 seconds. Frames taken at 10 second intervals.

I did so many things wrong. Forgot my neutral density, had too small of a memory card, exposure was wrong, but heck you learn from you mistakes so I must be learning fast. LOL

This is part of a timelapse I did this afternoon with the GoPro Hero 2. Interval timer set to 5 seconds. The camera was attached to the outside of a window using the suction mount.

Trying the timelapse function on my camera while the sun shines through my office window.
