Panama Canal: Time-Lapse photography and video


I recently transited the Panama Canal on a large private yacht. This being my third time in the canal, I decided to play around with video and incorporate some time-lapse images too.

This is not HD as I'm not really a video shooter, but I have to admit that I enjoyed trying to tell a story with moving pictures in addition to the stills. So I may find myself investing in something better soon. All the video was shot with a Canon G11 compact digital and the time-lapse images were shot with a Nikon D300.

I used the intervalometer feature on the D300 set to shoot every 15 seconds. I edited the stills in Aperture and put the video together using iMovie. Pretty basic editing tool for video but I think it turned out to be pretty cool. Enjoy TR
