Hypnotic Time-Lapsed Cinematogrpahy

by twistedsifter

Timescapes have just released their latest video and it’s a time-lapsed masterpiece. For all of the Luke Skywatchers out there, this is a visual treat as Tom shares his photographs from California’s Yosemite National Park and White Mountains. All images were shot using a Canon 5D2. And yes, that ‘scar’ in the sky that appears around the 0:51 mark is indeed the Milky Way Galaxy.

If you have a powerful processor and above-average video card, I highly recommend the HD version of the video (click here). To see all previous videos from Timescapes, please click here.
