Description

*** Best viewed in HD *** Skylights is a timelapse video made up of nearly 6,000 photos taken over the last few months in beautiful New Mexico, USA. Every frame in this video is a photograph. This video was so much fun to make and it was an absolute thrill to stay up all night shooting the stars. It's hard to describe how very still, quite and beautiful the night sky is when you are so far away the city. Most nights we all go to sleep and miss a spectacular show overhead, I hope I can capture just a hint of what may have been missed. Many shots were taken at the VLA ( Very Large Array) in New Mexico. The VLA is a perfect location for capturing the night sky because of its lack of light pollution. In areas this dark, the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye and almost looks like a string of clouds. This is my second timelapse and I cannot wait to get started on my next!

The eclipsed sunset shot was captured with a Sigma 500mm. I used the Stage Zero Dolly from Dynamic Perception for the motion controlled shots in this video.
