Time Lapse Orchids

I’ve had this sat on my HD for about two years and never knew what to do with it.. so its going up here!

This is a timelapse filmed on a mini DV video camera in interval mode - one second shot every minute for about 36 hours.. (although I’ve sped it up and edited out the night section!).

I’m hoping to do some more of these but with a stills camera instead, so as to get better resolution.. in the meantime.. enjoy.

    Fabulous Steve, these things are usually speeded up for maximum TV impact. I love the slow meditative progress here

    Thanks for the comments. The music is from “The Shawshank Redemption” by Thomas Newman. He also wrote the music to American Beauty, Six Feet Under and Road to Perdition.
