Almost a year ago we featured a timelapse video by videographer Dustin Farrell that showed the beauty of our Earth and sky. He’s now completed a second video which is just absolutely beautiful. Of particular interest to Universe Today readers is how Farrell was able to capture the stunning shimmering of stars at night and he even got several long-trailing meteors to make a cameo. Farrell says every frame of this video is a raw still from a Canon 5D2 DSLR and processed with Adobe software. “In Volume 2 I again show off my beautiful home state of Arizona and I also made several trips to Utah,” he writes on his Vimeo page. “This video has some iconic landmarks that we have seen before. I felt that showing them again with motion controlled HDR and/or night timelapse would be a new way to see old landmarks.”
Just gorgeous. Watching in HD with a big screen is recommended. Farrell adds that part 3 may be on the way. (Yay!)
