Time-lapse photography

The eerie, orange-hued phenomenon of the Saharan dust blanketing Athens during the week has been captured by a time-lapse video released by Meteo weather service of the National Observatory of Athens.

The images were recorded on Tuesday and Wednesday, when the dust cloud was at its strongest over Greece, before receding and moving further east.

With its natural beauty Greece is a place that lends itself for unbelievable images. Laurin Dopfner a social media video creator compiled a stunning montage of time-lapses and hyper-lapses (a time lapse technique with camera motion) during his visit to Greece. This is the incredibly beautiful result of his long hours of shooting and editing.

Daniel Marker-Moore’s time-sliced photos carry the charm of time lapse photography to show the shift from day to night across the world’s most iconic cities. The photographs focus on a point in the day – sunrise or sunset – with the most dramatic change in light. Taking dozens of images to show the subtle changes of the sun, he joins these together with interesting results.

David Lennon, aged 16, tried to envision what cities would look like without light pollution.  He filmed time-lapse footage of the night sky with his Canon 6D from the night  sky in Tasmania and then overlaid these to night-time cities from around the world using editing software to create some timelapses in exquisite 4k resolution.

Costas Golemis and Fotis Traganoudakis created this beautiful timelapse video of Greece in response to those who state that there is no hope for Greece.

It took hours and thousands of photo frames, special equipment designed by the two of them and very careful editing to create the final result.
