Here’s a timelapse video of the moving of 2 yards of compost enriched soil out of the driveway into our front garden. It’s fun to watch the pile shrink. We stop to talk to the neighbour (who is off-camera) around the 15 second mark and there’s 1 frame of Stephanie carrying Thomson (it’s just a flash). Unfortunately I didn’t capture the celebratory beer drinking at the end.
I’ve been playing with an old Canon Powershot A700 camera loaded with CHDK firmware and the Sunset 4 Timelapse script to make a series of timelapse videos. This is also the first video I’ve hosted on Amazon S3. Without such a service my old laptop/webserver would take about 3 days to stream this video to you. Isn’t cloud computing grand?
