There’s nothing more relaxing than lying flat on your back and let your field of view fill up only with the expanse of blue sky and white clouds. The world is outside your peripheral vision and it’s just you. This timelapse recreates some of that feeling for me.

The Arctic Light from TSO Photography on Vimeo.
Terje Sorgjerd filmed this exquisitely beautiful video between 29th April and 10th May 2011 in the Arctic, on the archipelago Lofoten in Norway. It depicts the sunset/sunrise before the Midnight Sun. For about 8 to 12 hours, the sun is barely going below the horizon before coming up again. At 1:06 we can see a single scene from day to night to day.
Music: “The Arctic Light” by Marika Takeuchi

Timelapse – The City Limits from Dominic on Vimeo.
Dominic Boudreault created this beautiful timelapse video from a composite of pictures taken from late 2010 through early 2011 from different locations, including:
- Montreal, Quebec, Canada
- Quebec city, Quebec, Canada
- Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- Manhattan, New York, USA
- Chicago, Illinois, USA
I especially like the silky smooth movements compared to so many timelapse where the movements are jerky.
Here is a MSNBC interview on his techniques.

Canon lenses: 14mm 2.8, 24mm 1.4, 135mm 2.0, and 70-200mm 2.8 IS

This is a VLT (Very Large Telescope) timelapse filmed in HD of our universe. It was taken in Cerro Paranal, II Region, Chile at an altitude of 2635m.
ALL IMAGES: (eso.org) taken on location by Stephane Guisard and Jose Francisco Salgado.

MUSIC SCORE: “We Happy Few” – The Calm Blue Sea (2008) — but I believe it’s much more majestic with the sound muted.
It is a very large file and you may want to wait for it all to load before playing it. The way I do this is I start the video and as it starts, I pause it. You’ll notice that the video still gets loaded in the background. I select 360p as my PC will choke at 720p HD, but if your machine has the CPU power, go for it.
