It was late in the day and I was out pushing my 6 month-old boy through the neighborhood when I realized that there was an incredible number of cumulonimbus clouds booming all over. I went back home and got all my gear out, but I have such a limited range of viewing from my home due to trees, houses and hills that I was lucky to get this shot between the trees. I was filming the clouds in the first scene when it suddenly got much darker and my neighbors alerted me to the nasty looking clouds coming at us from behind. I turned the camera around and started filming. I should have left everything alone there so the film would have been smoother. Oh, well practice makes perfect. The pictures were taken with a <a type="amzn">Canon PowerShot S3 IS</a> and Granite Bay Time-lapse software. I took one picture every 4 seconds. The movie was made with QuickTime Pro playing the pictures back at 30 fps. <br /><br />You can see my other time-lapse videos at my <a href="http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsehome.htm">time-lapse home page</a> or you can view my time-lapse and other videos at <a href="http://webiocosm.com/youtubeplayer/youtube.htm">my YouTube player page </a> if you can't view quicktime videos.</p>Henryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03410523174219327241noreply@blogger.com
