Dubai (time-lapse)

Not a time-lapse in the strictest sense of the term, but so starts our adventure into 4K.

Make sure your computer and screen can handle it.

After Macau and Hong Kong, let's make this a Chinese city trilogy.

Here's Shanghai.

Hong Kong (time-lapse)

A few days ago we featured Macau.
It's only fitting we feature its larger (and richer) neighbour, Hong Kong.

Again, courtesy of Little Big World.

(As always, watching in HD/full screen is recommended)





It seems like the British did a better job.
Sorry Portugal.

European Monuments and Buildings by Night (time-lapse)

Luke Shepard, the creator of Nightvision describes it as:

"...a celebration of the brilliance and diversity of architecture found across Europe. Over the course of three months I journeyed with a friend through 36 cities in 21 countries with the ambition of capturing some of the greatest European structures in a new and unique way. Comprised of thousands of carefully taken photographs, strung together and stabilized in post-production, Nightvision aims to inspire appreciation for these man-made landmarks."

Watching in full screen and HD is strongly recommended.

A full list of cities, sites and architects can be found at Luke Shepard's page.

Thanks to Lucas for this one.

Bay of Fundy Tide Timelapse

I'm in vacation mode, so there won't be too many updates in July.
But, I'll try.

Here is a video from Hall's Harbour, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Hall's harbour is situated on the Bay of Fundy, which is known for having the highest tidal range in the world (source: Wikipedia).

Miniature Melbourne (tilt-shift)

A short tilt-shift (see note at the end) time-lapse film featuring the city of Melbourne, Australia, by Nathan Kaso.


Miniature Melbourne from Nathan Kaso on Vimeo.

Very beautiful, although it isn't true tilt-shift.

From the video description on Vimeo:

The tilt-shift effect and grading was applied in Photoshop, and the film was edited in LRTimelapse, After Effects and Premiere Pro CS6.

Poland (time-lapse)

I haven't posted a time-lapse video for some time now.
So, here's Poland.



It's amazing how quickly some ex-communist countries have adopted and adapted to the modern economy and it's also nice to see them retain their traditional architecture. Some of these buildings are hundreds of years old and yet are still inhabited.

Perhaps it's time in my country (Greece) for us to bring down the ugly, concrete monsters that are the apartment blocks from the '50s and '60s and leave some room for us to breathe. A few parks would be a good start. When the crisis is over... and uncorrupted people with a vision are finally elected...

Human Aging Timelapses

This is interesting, but also a bit depressing.


People in order of age - 1 to 100




35 years backwards through time (2011-1976)




Natalie - Birth to 10 years old




Lotte - Birth to 12 years old




Vince (Lotte's brother) - Birth to 9 years old 




Noah takes a picture of himself for 12.5 years (January 11, 2000 - June 30, 2012)



Creepy music was a bit unnecessary in the last one.

This one is pretty nice and is accompanied by good music too.
As always, suggested viewing is in HD, full screen mode.
Enjoy.

The Sandpit



New York as if in miniature size.
No animation, just nice camera work.
