Some time ago Will Strathmann had an idea of creating a long-term timelapse of the seasons. That idea turned into an idea with a drone—and a farm in Pennsylvania. The first shot of this video was filmed in the spring of 2015 and the final was shot in January of 2017.

To achieve the video above, Will says he tried his best to fly on the same flight path each time and matched up everything in post-production. Not all of the footage lined up perfectly so he did a lot of manual cropping and shifting to try and get the various clips to match and blend.
