With the lots of travelling I was doing I thought a nice project would be to do timelapses of each view and stick them all together in a film&#8230;well just over a year after my last timelapse (October &#8217;09 to October &#8217;10) I have finally edited them all together. Unfortunately due to some catastrophic hard drive failures of the main drives and backups I lost about 6 or so timelapses which is a shame, they were mostly quite average views but that was the point of the film. Some of the views are spectacular, others less so (Manhattan Beach view being a highlight!)<\/p>\n<p>I used all sorts of cameras but mostly my Canon DSLRs, the Nikon D3s and the Ricoh point and shoot! Many were done through windows, some on balaconies and a few just outside of the room&#8230;I cheated a little there, but I could still the camera from my room so that counts&#8230;right?!<\/p>\n<p>Some of the shots used have been used in other films, like Sky and Monument Valley. <a href=\"http:\/\/philipbloom.net2010\/08\/02\/monumentvalley\/\">Monument Valley was probably the most amazing view, from a hotel called &#8220;the View&#8221;, at one point I had i believe 5 or 6 cameras catching different shots from the balcony as I was only there one night!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/philipbloom.net2010\/08\/02\/monumentvalley\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12725 lazyload\" title=\"Back Camera\" data-src=\"http:\/\/staging.philipbloom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/IMG_2383.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"478\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/philipbloom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/IMG_2383.jpg 640w, https:\/\/philipbloom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/IMG_2383-310x231.jpg 310w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/478;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12725\" title=\"Back Camera\" src=\"http:\/\/staging.philipbloom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/IMG_2383.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/philipbloom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/IMG_2383.jpg 640w, https:\/\/philipbloom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/IMG_2383-310x231.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I have to say I enjoyed the project but I am thankful the constant clicking of timelapse cameras whilst I was sleeping did start to drive me nuts.
