Travel from Rotterdam to Amsterdam in 10 minutes by boat: a 4k timelapse

  • In 2013 a special transport over water left from Rotterdam to Amsterdam. A timelapse camera was installed at 30 mtrs high. The resulting film gives a unique and stunning view of the old Dutch waterways, in 4K. And, you will pass a few dozen different bridges that all open before your eyes.
    Images were shot with a Canon 550d at an interval of 3 seconds, totalling around 30.000 pictures taken. In 2013 the film couldn't be published right away due to restrictions. After a few years it was forgotten. Till now.
    Music: Dvorak - Symphony no. 9 (From the New World) - second movement
    Here you can find a picture of the transport:

      @@Aakash243 This is what Google Translate makes of the description:
      In 2013, a special water transport departed from Rotterdam to Amsterdam. A timelapse camera was installed at a height of 30 meters.
      The transport follows the beautiful old waterways of the Dutch polder landscape. Starting at the Rotterdam Hefbrug in the Nieuwe Maas, the Gouwe is reached via the Hollandse IJssel, where special lift bridges open for us. Via the Oude Rijn we pass Gouda, the picturesque villages along the various Weteringen fly past us. The Haarlemmermeerpolder ring canal takes us to Amsterdam to moor there in front of the bridge at the A10. We wait for the sun to go down. The bridge opens. What follows are unique images; a bird's eye view of Amsterdam at night.
      The images were shot with a Canon 550d 18 MP camera with an interval of 3 seconds. In total, almost 30,000 photos were shot. At the time, the film was not allowed to be published immediately and - as is the case - eventually forgotten.

      This was at a lock - that delivery van was at the second bridge, but the first one would already be down when that second bridge opens so he decided that it would be faster to take the first bridge rather than wait for the second to come down as well.

      For your extra enjoyment, all the boats have a thing called: mariphone, this allows them to communicate with each other. This is why sometimes you get the feeling they will collide but then just didn't. There is a lot of communication hence and forth between ships and bridges, ships and locks and ships and ships.

      In the 80s and 90s I often came to the province of Friesland for my work and especially in the summer it was always price, bridge open and sometimes you had to wait for fifteen minutes until all boats and boats had passed through, sometimes a nice sight but if you had to experience this every week it will get pretty boring.
      But yes, those people on those vessels did not of course know that you had to experience this every week and also ensure that the car was empty at the end of the working day (shop closure)

    Translation of the long Dutch part in the subtitle:
    The transport follows the beautiful old waterways of the Dutch polder-landscape. Starting at the Rotterdam raisingbridge in the New Meuse, the Gouwe is reached through the Hollandse IJssel, where ligt bridges open for us. Through the Old Rhine, we pass Gouda and the
    picturesque towns by the many different waterstreams fly by us. The ring canal at the Haarlemmerlakepolder brings us towards Amsterdam to moor near the bridge at the A10 (highway). We wait until the sun rises. The bridge opens. What follows are unique images; a birdseye view through the night in Amsterdam

      als men even oplet bij 1.58 minuut ziet men rechts een brug over de Hollandse IJssel liggen die in het jaar 2012 in gebruik is genomen, scheelt behoorlijk wat reistijd en je hoeft niet meer om te rijden via de Haastrechtse brug en Stolwijkersluis of het Pontje in Moordrecht te nemen.
      Maar even iets anders, nu gaat het transport rechtdoor het gegraven Gouwe kanaal op richting de Julianasluizen, als men bedenkt dat dit afgesloten was en de Schielandse Hoge zeedijk gewoon rechtdoor liep en aansloot op de dijk naar Moordrecht, Nieuwerkerk etc, om uiteindelijk in Rotterdam aan te komen.
      Dat stuk dijk is weggegraven in de jaren '30 ik heb er nog een foto van maar wellicht ergens te vinden op het internet en anders even geduld want over een poosje komt er een fotoserie op mijn RUclips kanaal te staan waar deze foto's van dit soort waterwerken niet zullen ontbreken.
      Als men de foto bekijkt dan is het polderlandschap nog in volle glorie, tegenwoordig anno 2020 is zo wat bijna alles wel volgebouwd zelfs een groot gedeelte van de Polder ten westen van Gouda wordt volgebouwd en dat heet dan Westergouwe, als men nog even doorgaat dan knoopt men Gouda vanzelf wel vast aan een willekeurige buurgemeente in de toekomst, zeg maar een verlengstuk van de grote broer Rotterdam, raadpleeg Google maps om meer duidelijkheid te verkrijgen wat ik hier heb verteld.
