To show up panoramas Flickr isn't the best platform. Now I've found a way to show it to you interactive!!!
Please use the Link below and you can navigate in this panorama as if you were standing on the cameras place.
Put your mousepointer into the picture and klick the left button. You only have to move the pointer up....down...left....right....thats it.
If it doesnt work, you may need Java, Flashplayer or something else - perhaps a Quicktime plugin...I don't know...for me it works ;-)
--->>> Link to the Interactive Zugspitz Panorama <<<----
This is a 8 picture-panorama in HDR (15,6 Mega Pixel), this means all in all I've made 24 pics for that pano. It contains a rotation about 180°.
You see the (especially in the Netherlands) famous Zugspitz-Arena around Ehrwald.
The daytime is late, thus the sun illuminates mountain Zugspitze on the left side. Right above the Zugspitze you can see the moon.
Have fun, I'll be back on Friday!

Experimental upload. Looks a bit silly in 360° x 180°.
I think that's as wide vertically as it gets in the center due to the 35mm lens. Flickr also does not allow zooming in so that the whole black box would be used.
I really like the way the panorama displays as a QuickTime VR in QuickTime 7. Really sad that Apple dropped the ball on this format and that there is no alternative to rotate a cylindrical panorama like this.
I'll have a download link later for those who still have access to QuickTime 7.
Here is the link for those who are on Mac OS and still have a working version of QuickTime 7. [Still works in OS 10.13x but not in OS 11] QuickTime 10 does not support QTVR files.

I tried to make this a scrollable/seamless 360° panorama but did not succeed. Spent long hours in PTGui and tried another VR software, but I just can't find a simple way to do this.
First I tried the QuickTime VR inside PTGui. That works well on my Mac, but only in the old QuickTime 7 player.
Research tells me that Apple dropped this format with QT10.
Flickr does not seem to know how to process a QTVR.mov file.
The only output from PTGui that seems to work is if I output this panorama at a 2:1 ratio spherical JPG.
But that shows then black areas above and below with a cushioned panorama.
I realize that a one row horizontal panorama like this may not work at all for displaying flat and endless looping.
Seems a simple request, and maybe I'm just missing something here.
All I want is to loop this as a flat panorama and preserve the resolution.

this was shot during the
week I found peace.
solace perhaps
ditched the cell
forgot my daily routine
and disappeared into
northern ontario canada
cottage life
this was sunrise
5:51 am according to the exif data.
not far from where i
fell asleep (more like passed out)
on the beach.
pickerel lake, burk's falls

footnote: originally i was going to title this something along the lines of greek mythology, river styx but styx connotates demonic imagery. so went looking for something else more appropriate. Jewish eschatology speaks of Olam Haba which is certainly more approprate here - the world to come, the afterlife.
i'm curious what this shot says to you.
This is my favorite park at the beach in Sonoma County.
It is actually a scene that I lifted from a movie that I made at the beginning of 2016.
Mama departing. a sequence of 35 frame, shot at 14fps with the D6, then combined in quicktime at 4fps. Note in the last frames the chicks are starting too strand up.

One-minute video at YouTube. Sorry to bounce it over there, but I seem to get better video quality at YouTube than here.
Mouse broke off from a hug to check out something upwind. She's scanning a ravine and the woods beyond.
I kept bumping into her which distracted her for an instant, but she was undeterred until she decided that it wasn't a serious threat.
The soundtrack is an instrumental version of Little Black Train, a spooky 1890s Holiness Movement spiritual that I learned from Dock Boggs.
I was building some fractals today when these portal shapes emerged. I though of one of my favorite artists, Roger Dean, who made the Yes album covers. I have a bunch of quicktime VR panoramas I did in the Lake District and mixed these pieces together for a 70s reminder of my progressive rock days.
I was one of the lucky ones capturing the ‘Steath Sunset’ on 24/06/19. The rain had set in for the evening so we decided to chill out and eat in a restaurant rather than grab a snack and rush for a sunset.
It was still wet outside after our meal as we were driving back to the accommodation but we noticed a hint of pink in the sky. With only 15 minutes until sunset we headed for the pink poppy fields en route watching the sky gradually changing colour every minute. It started to glow with a display of graduated shades of yellow, orange, magenta and blue . We pulled in by the field and like a mad-man I leapt out of the car in excitement, put my camera gear together in quicktime and headed for the field. OMG it was gorgeous. With it still spitting with rain I managed a few photos before the vibrant colours faded quickly into beautiful pastel tones then back to grey again. I never expected that!
Canon 40D does not have a built-in time-lapse function, but connecting the camera with USB to a laptop, you can set up a time-lapse sequence with Canon EOS utility. This is my first attempt, not too exciting, just a "proof of concept" :-) I used Apple Quicktime Pro to generate the movie from the still images, this sequence is made from 250 still images. (25 fps)
Taken at 11pm, Bergen, Norway.
Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) on July 13, 2020. The following video was made of 525 five second exposures taken with a Canon 80D and a Canon 50 mm f/1.4 lens (@f/4, ISO 1600). The images were combined using QuickTime and played at 30 FPS
The other produce one can generate with a folder full of edited time laps frames is a startrail. unlike the previous video I posted, which runs the frames as a movie sequence, this time the illuminated section of each frame is added to its successor until all the light captured during the long session is recorded on the last frame (as if the shutter was left open for the entire time). The is done on StarStax, a free software doing the function photoshop does but much faster and in a user friendly way. since StarStax can save each frame during the process, a movie can be made. This view is straight north, and the earth rotation creates the star "movement" around the north star which does not "move". Enjoy (I hope)...
The plan was to catch a rainbow looking out to sea from a beach!
On arrival at 06.15 it was dark and quite breezy with low cloud in the east obscuring the sun at first. An hour later the dunes and fence lit up beautifully. I wasn’t completely happy with a part rainbow because I imagined a full bow over Thurlestone rock. I set up in another spot and waited about another hour.
The skies turned dark grey and stormy out to sea and the sun had gone in behind me. The wind spookily picked up, the hail pelted down so I covered up QuickTime . The force of the random gale literally blew me backwards and my tripod off the ground. It lasted for several minutes so I decided that was it for me. Extremely soaked and so cold from the high speed hail I gave up and headed back to the car for a hot flask of tea to warm up. I never got my full rainbow over the sea this time!
Looking up at 500 Boylston Street as the clouds go by.

How-to:
Shot sequence of raw photos at 2-second intervals using @procamapp on iPhone 6s (laid flat on the ground) with @moment fisheye lens attached. Imported the raw photos to @Lightroom and did batch adjustments there, including using a lens profile to correct some of the fisheye distortion. The most tedious part of this workflow is going through and removing individual frames where people walked too close to the camera (any ideas on how to automate that?). Then, I rendered the frames at 25fps using a free app called Zeitraffer (but several people have told me its not available anymore and its kind of a memory hog, so I’ve been meaning to learn a better way to do this - maybe Adobe Premiere? Trying that is on my to-do list), and then used Quicktime to export at 4k.
The thin crescent moon was imaged shortly before setting on October 17, 2020 from Lancaster, PA. On this date, the moon was reported to be a little over a day old, one of my thinnest crescents ever observed. The video was made of a sequence of 419 images taken with a Canon T6s and a Canon 200 mm f/2.8L II lens. (various exposures, ISO 400, f/6.3). Tracking was done with an iOptron Sky Tracker.
Pit of oracle bones (甲骨) at Anyang Yinxu. The oracle bones are pieces of bone or turtle plastron bearing the answers to divination during the late Shang Dynasty (1766-1050 BC). They were heated and cracked, then typically inscribed using a bronze pin in what is known as the Oracle Bone Script (甲骨文), the earliest known significant corpus of ancient Chinese writing. The bones contain important historical information such as the complete royal genealogy of the Shang Dynasty.
Yinxu is the ruins of the last capital of Shang Dynasty . The capital served 255 years for 12 kings in 8 generations.

This is by far the most complicated shot I've done. Here is the lighning set-up: Two strobes where used for each subject. The sun was on camera right from the back of the car and it was pretty strong. Another strobe was used to light the hay that is flying behind the car.
That's me on the left with a Canon in Hand and my friend Yannick is on the right holding his little baby Canon XL2.
I combined a couple of different shots and blended them together in photoshop.
It is a promo shot I did for a Media Production Company called ''XCMultidesign''. My friend Yannick is the owner and he helped me out with this shot.

For the past 3 years, I’ve had the wonderful experience to see a particular couple dance the tango at the plaza by the Cathedral. So, this past summer I made several visits to the plaça especially to see them, take videos and pictures.
But wouldn’t you ...

This is one of my earlier mold mary janes that didn't fill completely, resulting in a bubble at the pour site. Because it was a reject, I elected to stress test it. First I pull on the strap until it snaps. The sound is out of sync (quicktime upload issue). It took considerable force to break the strap.
Next, I bend the shoe over on itself to demonstrate that it is fairly flexible and will return to it's normal shape after some serious abuse.
I took much longer the create this 1m12s long clip than actually getting the images, but here all the Aurora footage I got with the proviso that next time I will always let the camera collect 1000 images or more.
The images were taken along E8 connecting Finland and Norway, or on E6 on the way to Narvik. In the first clip, trucks were illuminating the road every so often. Several meteors can be seen, in addition to at least 4 satellites and numerous airplanes at high altitudes.
For those interested in the gory detail: The first clip is from the road since the lake we targeted in Skibotn was used by NATO in a night exercise. The nest two clips are from Strosteinnes. a total of 600 frames are created automatically by Z9 using the interval shooting feature, and a timelaps video is also created in camera. However, I wanted an edited and slower video. I edited all the images in LRC (using batch editing), exported all into folders and created a ProRES movie with QuickTime™. The video was slowed down, given titles, and the three clips combined in iMovie.

1584 images, captured with my Canon 5D
Assembled in into a .mov with Quicktime Pro, and blended the frames in FinalCut.
Over the duration of this entire capture, the aperture is fixed and the sensor is exposed progressively longer. The first frame was captured at 1/500th of a sec -- and the last exposure was a full 8 seconds (!!). The technical 'goal' of this project was to capture this enormous dynamic range - and to blend through it seamlessly. The most challenging sequence is from :40 to :55, where the exposure rate of change is extremely steep - and the amount of incoming light drops like a rock.
From a signal processing point of view, it is a challenging dataset.
The entire thing must be tonemaped into a very small range (problem #1) *and* to be perceptually smooth without loosing perceptual detail (problem #2)

This old cemetary is just behind our house in the city center of Bonn, Germany. In the early summer mornings the birds in these old trees sing so loud, they will wake us at 5 a.m..
Beethoven's mother is buried here as well as Robert and Clara Schumann, the famous composers. Its an honor to be buried here.
For me the park aspect is the most important. The place is like a green lung in the city center. I love these huge and old trees.
This image is stitched from more that 100 single shots to give the viewer an impression of the place to transport the feeling of actually being there. It is also possible but not necessary to view this in a virtual reality viewer like PTviewer or Quicktime. I love to look all around in a glimpse and I love to discover all these little details in the 200-Megapixels-original file.
I am not the photographer of this image – I am merely the Photoshop editor.
History
Well known for their ability to transform Mustang’s into modern masterpieces, the Ringbrothers have set the bar even higher with Bowers ’65 Mustang. The body was widened an incredible four inches, highlighted by the custom BASF * (orange) paint, and both the hood and roof are carbon-fiber – signature Ringbrothers touches. Under the hood is high compression Keith Craft-built 427 cubic inch stroker based on the 351 Windsor small block making 740 crank horsepower. The matte finish three-piece wheels designed by the Ringbrothers were built by Forgeline. Baer brakes, Afco shocks and a suspension consisting of front tubular A-arms and a Watts link set up in the rear give the car razor sharp handling. The car gets its name (in this graphic image) from (The) Appleman. See link shown below for the “actual” name (and credit) for which this car was named.

BTW – the blue oval object evident on the front is the oil filter. Clever placement, huh?
* NOTE: The paint color on the car was changed in Photoshop............why? Well because, I thought this was a better color for the car and I liked the name..... (now maybe the Ringbrothers might not agree...........! )
This video of the Mercury transit was made of 78 images taken of the transit of November 11, 2019. Each image was taken approximately 5 minutes apart except for a few interim exposures taken near the start and the end of the transit. The forecast was calling for cloudy skies; fortunately, the weather held throughout the entire transit! The event started at 7:35 AM EST and ended at 1:04 PM EST.

My name is Jeff Thomas. I am a 17 year old high school student from Phoenix, Arizona. Over my winter break, I was fortunate enough to visit Jackson, Wyoming. I knew that the town was known for its astonishing landscapes, yet I was still overwhelmed when I saw them with my own eyes. This timelapse was shot, edited, and rendered over the course of five days. I dedicated my small time in Wyoming to timelapse images, and I tried to capture all aspects of the beautiful state. Enjoy.

Had my buddies over last night, mainly to edit a music video, but when that was done I got an idea to shoot a manipulation containing me and my homies plus some frames.
I always tend to go back to these kinds of manips, I've made a lot of them the last few years. An example:
chiiron.deviantart.com/gallery/?catpath=/&offset=120#...
I got a lot of questions on how I made the photo above. And I thought, why not make a Time Lapse of how the work flow can look like when making these kinds of pictures. This project took like 3 hours from idea to finish.
Workflow for the Time Lapse: Shot with my 40D every second then uploaded it to Lightroom3 where I cropped them before exporting to Quicktime Player 7 where the Timpe Laps is being made. Finally I added the two Time Lapse movies to Final Cut Pro where I added the pics and music.

Another screencap for the film. I just discovered that while viewing clips on Quicktime, you can copy and paste any images from the clip. This here is my first screencap using this technique. The image is a little blurry, but eh, it works.
This is from a new clip for the film, a continuation of the scene when the detective questions Harvey. This image here is of Tucci, looking through one of his dollhouse windows. The coolest thing about this scene is the way Jackson chose to shoot it. The detective is checking out Tucci's dollhouses, and everytime he peaks in a window, Tucci is there looking at him. It's such a perfect metaphor for the film, which says that Tucci is always one step ahead of the detective's investigation, while being sly and cunning. I love Lesnie's lighting in this shot as well as it conveys a very eery presence of Tucci.
On a side note, at the beginning of the clip, I love the shot of the detective and Tucci standing, and then it focuses from them onto the bracelet. That is such an amazing shot and captured perfectly.
On another side note, completely different from visuals, Tucci is going to be really good in this role. I was amazed by his reaction at the beginning of the clip when the detective asks if he doesn't mind if he can go over and look at the dollhouses. He replies by saying "No". I love how he delivers "No"; it's like a screwed, if-I-don't-let-you-go-over-it'll-be-awkward reaction. Plus have you ever been in a situation where your mind is going against something, but then you give in to that something, even before your mind can understand your decision? That's like his reaction here; he's probably going against letting the detective near the bracelet, but then he has to give in.
Here's a link to the new clip; it's clip 2:
A tour of the mcli server "farm", more of an agglomeration.
Starting from the left, we have "Jade", a 1.33GhZ Apple Xserver that runs CogDogBlog (weblog plus a few more), the Feed2JS site as well as virtual hosting Maricopa eP, an electronic portolio system. The Xserve also does some QuickTime streaming, such as our examples of Digital Stories created by faculty in a summer workshop.
Below the table, the left tower is Azurite, a Mac OSX server (1 GHz) that mainly hosts project files and FileMaker databases used my our office staff. It runs as a web server just a copy of our Writing HTML tutorial as well as a smaller amount of QuickTime streaming.
The tower on the right is a 664 MhZ Pentium 2, also know as "Realgar" where I test a few new applications, run an evaluation license of Helix (Real Media server), and some things like a copy of my Kiwi Wiki.
To the right of this is a 20 minute APS battery backup. Just in case your power goes out... for less than 20 minutes. All the servers are set to reboot if their power goes out.
What is really cool is a new Belkin OmniViewKVM switch (left of the monitor), a 4 way switchbox so you can use one Keyboard, Video, and Mouse to switch between 4 computers-- the nice feature here is the ability to connect to either USB (Mac) or PS/2 (the old PC) connections.
Finally, on the shelf above are 4 FireWire hard drives, used for backups of the two Mac servers with Retrospect. Each server rotates backups between two external drives.
The PC server backs up over the ntetwork to another server upstairs, which then does its own backups on a dedicated tape drive.
A short video of the sun taken in extremely narrow-band hydrogen alpha light using a Lunt Solar LS50THa/600B telescope. As you can see there were lots of clouds so this wasn’t that great of an opportunity to capture a sharp, high-resolution image but I thought it still interesting and thus decided to post it since there doesn’t seem to be that many images on Flickr taken with this scope.
There are good examples of just about every type of solar feature that you can hope to see with a solar telescope (or at least when using one as small as the LS50). On the upper left and lower right you can see solar prominences on the edge of the sun while the surface of the sun is showing bright plages, dark filaments, sun spots, and a texture known as granules (of various magnitudes/sizes).
In order to reduce the size of the upload this video has been highly compressed which has introduced compression artifacts and posterization into the image.
Taken about one hour before sundown on February 28, 2016 using a Lunt LS50THa telescope (single stack, pressure tuned, 6mm blocking filter) and a Celestron Skyris 445M CCD camera controlled by the application FireCapture.
Image processing done in PIP, Photoshop CC2015, and Apple’s QuickTime 7 player.

The only place I know where one can see an actual Shay steam locomotive in operation in the American midwest is at the Hesston Steam Museum in LaPorte County, Indiana.
In this video, I'm standing near the cylinders of the Shay as it gets ready to move.
But before it can go anywhere, the engineer has to open the cylinder cocks to remove any water that might have accumulated in the cylinders.
There is no louder noise on this planet than a steam locomotive clearing out it's cylinders. A jet engine is a lullaby by comparison.
The automatic metering on my camcorder had its hands full for this event. Notice how even though the bell is ringing throughout the video, it's almost impossible to hear above the noise of the steam.
Enjoy!

hahaha so there you go.
*So I just finished applying to MassArt, OHMYGOD was that complicated.
took me 2 days just to set up my portfolio and whatnot.
and they told me to convert my videos to .mov files, the nto put them on a DVD.
but uh heelllo, you can't put quicktime movies on DVDs.
so i just snuck them on the CD-R.
hopefully they don't care.
whatev, I wanna go to Emerson anyways.

I bought an old Leica Digilux 3 on eBay and when I got it everything was packed in the box exactly as from the factory. It looks brand new and actually doesn't look like it has ever been used. So I started playing with it to learn how it shoots and came away very impressed.
From Microsoft Copilot - "The Leica Digilux 3, a digital single-lens reflex camera, made its debut on September 14, 2006. This camera was a departure from Leica’s usual reflex lens mount, as it adopted the Four Thirds system. The Digilux 3 shared specifications with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1, both utilizing the Four Thirds standard lens mount and featuring a 7.5 Megapixels live view N-MOS sensor. However, the Digilux 3 had modified firmware that included DNG output."
"Here are some key features of the Leica Digilux 3:
