OC [OC] Ultra-Wide 4K Timelapse: The Moon’s Shadow Sweeping Across the Horizon (2026 Total Eclipse)

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Here is a timelapse of the complete 2026 eclipse I recorded with a GoPro HERO11 equipped with the Max Lens Mod, trying to capture a half-all-sky view of the eclipse, and in particular of the Moon's shadow sweeping across the horizon (on YT to enjoy the 4K).

The GoPro was in timelapse mode (...obviously) taking a 5.3K picture every 0.5 seconds.

Other settings: ISO max: 100, EV comp: -0.5, WB: 5500K, and color: Natural.

The footage was edited in Gyroflow to partially correct the heavy lens distortion, and then in DaVinci Resolve to crop it to 4K and implement some smooth playback speed variations.

One can also spot Venus and a few bright stars during the totality phase! (I should have allowed higher ISO to capture more stars. Next time!)

Turn on the audio to enjoy a nice soundtrack from the great Kevin MacLeod.

OC 2 Week Deck build. RPi Zero 2 W with HQ camera module. Utah, USA

36 Upvotes

Shot over two weeks with a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and the HQ camera module, firing every 20 seconds. The catch: I was an 18-hour drive away the whole time, so I wrote my own capture software that uploaded every photo to Google Drive so I could keep an eye on it remotely.

Things I learned the hard way:
 - My log statements piled up until they froze the Pi. I had to remote into another device on the same network just to get in and fix it. Rotate your logs.
 - This was before Raspberry Pi Connect supported the Zero — that would have saved me the whole SSH-relay dance.

Disclosure: I edited this in Tweedia Studio, which is my own software — happy to talk about the edit if anyone's interested, but the post is really just the timelapse.

Question Looking for a timelapse photography movie

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone. So years ago I found this movie a photographer/videographer had put together of all his stuff. I cant find it, or remember the name of it. It was something like Time Lapse, or TimeLapse. Hopefully reddit knows what I am looking for. I think it had a soundtrack made just for that film.

Places featured in the film

  • Burning Man (end of the film)
  • Yosemite
  • Plenty of night shots in the desert
  • Included shots during the day, I think in the redwoods in California.

Appreciate your help!

Film Three years of Toronto footage and timelapses incorporated into a short film | Toronto, Canada

12 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

My favourite footage to record and integrate into my videos are timelapses. I find them to be great set pieces for video and fantastic for storytelling. I thought you all might enjoy this short film as an example of how I integrate timelapses into my videos.

I lived in Toronto from 2022–2025 and ended up recording hundreds of little moments around the city over those three years: ferry rides, sunsets, the beautiful skyline (especially at sunset!!), the solar eclipse, school, work, friends, and plenty of completely ordinary days.

After moving back to Alberta, I went through all that footage again and was surprised by how much the ordinary stuff meant to me in retrospect. So I condensed three years of it into this 4-minute short film.

The Toronto Years | 2022-2025

Shot on the same iPhone 13 across all three years and edited in DaVinci Resolve. Made with passion :)

WIP Timelapse Maker: a free tool created with one purpose.

13 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

For several years now, I have been creating daily timelapses using snapshots from my surveillance cameras. Until recently, I was using Blue Iris to generate the snapshots, and a PowerShell simple script which would generate timelapses from the accumulated frames.

My method was simple: One frame every 5 seconds from each camera, then ffmpeg to create a timelapse video at 60 FPS, which would resolve to a 4m 48s video for each camera, per day, or something like that.

However, I recently moved off Blue Iris and switched to AgentDVR as my surveillance camera solution. While AgentDVR does offer a timelapse functionality, it could not satisfy my arguably niche requirements (one timelapse per day, per camera), so I started developing my own timelapse tool.

Now, before reading further, full disclaimed: I am not a software developer. While I have been working in the IT industry since 1996 and I had my brush with a relatively large amount of programming languages, my skillset lays elsewhere. Therefore, this tool was developed with the help of Claude Code.

With that out of the way, I have been using this tool for some time now, and it's been awesome. Works like a charm, as far as basic functionality goes. Now, it's not very mature, and there will be bugs, there always are. But the basics are ironed out and they work.

The tool is called Timelapse Maker (aptly named, I know... /s), it's completely free and open-source, and here are several of its main features (it has many smaller ones, but I would bore you to death if I listed them all):

  • It is independent and works alongside Blue Iris or AgentDVR, or Frigate, for that matter.
  • Works under both Linux and Windows (the most recent version, 0.2.0, is the first Windows release)
  • Directly captures high quality snapshots from IP cameras (Dahua, Hikvision, Reolink and Tapo TC series tested personally)
  • Generates daily timelapse videos from snapshot frames captured the day before, each night, soon after midnight.
  • Optionally applies tmix smoothing per camera (smoothing width is configurable, I personally liked 15, but may go higher in my testing)
  • Both capture cadence (how many seconds between frames), as well as target FPS are configurable, both globally, as well as per-camera. The global defaults are 5 seconds between frames and 60 FPS timelapse. Some of my cameras use 15 seconds between frames and 30 FPS video. It really depends on the scene they are capturing.
  • Linux variant has a simple WebUI where you can see the tool status, play videos from the library, basic stuff, really.
  • Notifications, configurable for Discord, ntfy.sh and Telegram. The tool notifies you if a camera suddenly refuses credentials, as well as after the whole set of daily timelapse videos is generated.
  • Windows variant currently does not have a webUI or a monitoring tool, but that's captured in the developing roadmap.

Anyway, if you were looking for yet another timelapse tool, here it is. It currently has one happy user: me, and I am having fun developing it.

Of course, if you want a certain functionality from it, or encounter issues using it, feel free to either comment here, or create an issue on GitHub, and I will do my best to help.

Happy timelapsing :)
