A whole year of time lapse

- I positioned a Canon IXUS on my balcony for more that a year and it automatically took a picture every five minutes. Then I made a time lapse movie by selecting the twenty most complex photos of every day and rotating a lowres window through the hires photo. Watch nature change in the flow of the seasons!

absolutely beautiful. im 16 years old and going through my 2nd year of seasonal depression with winter. to see spring come up like that just puts a smile on my face..
There are damn few videos on RUclips that move me to tears by their sheer beauty and artistry. This is one of them.
Been over a decade since I first watched your video. It’s still beautiful.
One of the most amazing videos on RUclips, it is very well put together and shows the beauty of the Earth...
I loved this video and play it often, sometimes for music, other times for image. I loved the panning. It was as if were saying you can never see your whole world at once. It gave a sense of travel and time that I think a static shot would not have, Thanks to the filmmaker.
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life. But I am sing it everywhere, every moment. Just at a different speed.
I like this video! The music is both
dramatic and sad. The passing of the
seasons. I love it!
Amazing to watch as the seasons are changing right before your eyes!
Harnessing time as art is priceless.
Its like sad and nostalgic... :'( Time passes by so quickly when you dont look back at the past. God this movie almost made me cry
This is the most touching video I have ever seen. It moved me in ways I never thought possible. This is epic in Oh so many ways. You seriously deserve a medal for this.
the transformations in the garden are amazing. great vid
Very beautiful and thoughtful. Just the perfect music too... thanks for making this. It makes one think.
Wow that was eerie and awesome at the same time! The music definatly made this video!
Has anyone noticed the pure simplicity of this natural behaviour - and still everyone that would watch this video finds it so esthetic. We shouldn't see nature as something to watch a few seconds a day - we should see it as the most common but fairest work of art.
I love videos like this... pure art to me
thanks for posting
beautiful
brought a tear to even my eye
isnt spring and summer such gorgeus seasons
Wow, we humans move to fast to notice how nature moves, how it grows, how it cries..... This video is beautiful......
I love how the snow weighs down the branches of the evergreen and you can see them come up as the snow melts.
this is incredible, it really shows how fast time goes by us... great job
So beautiful, really makes you think how fast time goes by.
Nice work. Love the way you shifted things around as well, makes it more interesting to watch.
a very beautiful vid wow cant believe we watched an year go by in less than 4 mins
That was really cool. Something about it was evocative of positive emotions and reminiscence.
This was absolutely wonderful, thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Very nice vid and well chosen music. Very peaceful. People can learn a lot from just sitting and watching nature.
Simply amazeing...I'm dazzled at this video, well done! And others said a different song would of worked and it might of, but I think it was perfect. The music flows with the time. Really magical.
Wow! This is a great video. A work of art… and patience!
Amazing. I especially like watching the clotheslines spin and disappear!
Probably because we're self centred and find time so precious. "Oh the years! They pass, they pass so fast!"
That's absolutely amazing!
I'm also trying to capture long-term changes from the same perspective, but it's just unimaginable for me to maintain the same camera position for such a long time!
Rock on, its been a long time since someone made me cry
The music really just compliments the Video...it mixed in so well...
Mychael Nyman- The departure
Gattaca Soundtrack
INCREDIBLE JOB MAN JUST AMAZING
That was realy cool! Seeing the seasons change and everything. =) Nice work
amazing!!! as a film maker i respect the time and effort put into this picture! well done
great idea man, the panning around makes it stay interesting during all the time, and the movement of that cloth drier gets me ;)
Thank you - great video the panning added an extra dimension almost hypnotic.
Absolutely beautiful... Death and rebirth... We forget how heartbreakingly beautiful our world is sometimes when we get caught up in our daily activities.
One of my favorite time lapse.
Have you guy ever seen those videos where you say "Give me my 3 minutes back!"?
Well, this is exactly the oposite. Thank you so much for giving us this splendid 3:36 minutes :)
bravo my friend, your patience paid off. worthy of 5 stars.
This made me very sad. Makes me wish we would all live our lives as if it really did pass this fast, maybe we would appreciate the beauty around us that much more while we're here.
transending, very good. The rotation and the music makes this video work. This makes me want to be there....
I've always been a sucker for time-lapse stuff.
This was wonderful! Thanks for posting. 5*s
this was a beautiful piece of work!
its just cool to witness nature change on video
The song is from Gattaca, I think it's called The Morrow (Bienvenue à Gattaca).
It's really sad, but we have to remember all good deeds we did and do for the time being.
Thank you for making this! It's beautiful!
Excellent film. Perfectly suited music.
this song is so emotional i love it, and nice time lapse
Regardless of the quality, this is amazing.
Awesome I've always wanted to do that the camera moves throughout the time lapse which amazes me would love to see the high quality good job
I just realized something:
I've watched this 20 times now: I've seen my whole life passing by in little over an hour...
So beautiful...Love the music.
Yeah. I think it's beautiful. Well done.
I also think the audio track is perfect.
Thanks for sharing.
"Like sands through the hourglass...
So are - the days of our lives."
As was said on TV some years ago.
Fantastic work (and patience)! Well done!
this is an absolute work of art. 5/5
Good work! I love watching trees change colour each season really rapidly but no other video does it fast, not one that I have found :)
Snow.... slows me down.... why? Objectively it's so beautiful!
holy God, how could you have waited that long just to make a video!? AMAZING haha.
2 years since last comment. Wow. Great video man :)
2 years.
This video is simply beautiful.
beautiful
i like it especially when the shadows pass over
this video is amazing. very well done. the music goes well.
There was no chaninging of battery or memory, because the camera (ixus) was powered by an AC adapter and constanly connected to a linux server with 80GB HDD by USB, also hanging from the balcony.
If you look at the evergreen during the second snowing (towards the end) you can see how the weight of the snow affects the branches. Neat :)
Like an acid trip.
Groovy man!
i like that the camera sweeps a circle, after viewing, peer into what is possibly the best kaleidoscope on youtube. filmed by a nationally recognized photographer in high res with accurate color capture. so good it would keep chris rock's attention.
easily found - youtube ** BLUE SIBERIA **
I have been touched on so many levels....
that was tooo sick, well worth the effort
This is a reminder of how fleeting our lives are. We will all soon be standing before our Maker.
I wanted to do a time lapse for one day, and i thought it's hard(and expensive, cause my camera is with tapes). but you did it for a whole year. i'm verry impressed.
Wow, that was an AMAZING video. I love it!
Incredible! Great idea and execution.
Wouldn't have been half as good without the snow! =)
Ahh the music from Gattaca fits well with this. A+++++
it is kind of funny that after watching this very beautiful video, it shows a suggestion video for ants eating ham
great video, great music, it gives the feeling "someone you miss dearly" as time goes by ^^
the nature is amazing and beautiful even it is surrounded with houses and walls
Notice the steel rebar under the parking lot makes a pattern as it remains cold enough for the snow to melt aound but not over it. It's interesting!
ahh... i remember that year. that was a good year.
Great concept. Respect for that! Really luv the video!
I actually really like the panning. :) It's very interesting and well done, in my opinion!
Exactly my thought, one respects nature after looking at a video like this.
just makes me feel so happy!
gotta love the gattaca music. Good work!
Beautiful! I love the music!
~Camelle
More people like you and the world will be pretty good place.
I think it'd really well done.
I mean its a whole year.
That takes determination.
Really nice work ^_^
Thank you - I knew the composer sounded familiar. Love that guy.
Simply mesmerizing.
The music is from the movie Gattaca when the guy in the wheelchair sets himself on fire.
Really beautiful, but i've seen it been used for other time lapses. I don't know why its so fitting...
the music makes me sad because it makes me feel like a whole year has gone by in 7 minutes and i just sat around and did nothing
not sure, but its used in a time-lapse video made by 599-productions that i just watched on youtube a minute ago...
What would be depressing is if a year actually went by that quickly.
THIS IS THE BEST RUclips VIDEO EVER!
Spectacular idea my friend.
well im not sure of this version but the main version is called "The Departure" by Michael Nyman. It's the soundtrack of a movie. Gattaca I believe.
The camera did not rotate. It just took a picture at high resolution every 5 minutes. Then I wrote a perl script to cut out an image of DVD-resolution in the large image, moving the cutout-part over time on a circular path. Then it inserts the timestamps (can't see it here in lowres...) and creates the xvid movie from the images. This gives the sensation of moving the camera over time.
