Time
After seeing other people doing this on You Tube we decided we wanted to create our own time stop video of the view from our apartment. Problem was, our front windows look into the neighbors' front windows and we didn't want a view that would cut out all sky and chance of seeing the sun, though the sunset can be pretty from there. We set up the camcorder looking out the back windows angling it so we weren't just looking at the SBC's lovely brick wall (we now had the view of the funeral home as well, lovely) and then had to trick it to stay on all the time by setting it to digital camera mode. Then we hooked it up to the laptop where we had installed some software that would use the camera to take an image every 30 seconds. We started messing with camera and what not around midnight, we actually started recording around 3:40AM. At the time we didn't realize how bad the screen would look in front of the lense (we have a cat, we didn't want to take it out). So expect a take two soon sans the screen once we figure out a way to disuade Speck from sticking his furry mug out our second story window. Hope you enjoy two sunrises and a sunset in Illinois. We're even in a frame or two, though with the screen there's no way you will spot us!
