Thanks for the info.
Was the six frames in one second to stacks them or make the pictures sharper ?
Sounds like almost a rhythm, 8 sec exposure, 8 second delay ( or 9 or 10 ) .

Good questions, I edited my upper post above hopefully to be a little clearer on the frame (pictures) per second in the TL video .

As for the in camera settings, for night photography if I set my exposure to 8 seconds, then I add a second typically for the intervalometer setting (9 seconds), so there is a one second delay between shots being taken... no hard rule here, just what I have done.

For my sunset time lapses I set my intervalometer to 3 seconds, set to aperture priority and let the exposure time change as needed. This gives a fairly smooth look to the video at 24 frames (images) per second when I create these.

A recent example for a sunset time lapse...

Thanks again-

Ya, I've seen that video a few times, love it and how the clouds and colors change...Very neat.
.
So how many frames would you say for a 1 minute video ?
.
What program did you use to make the video ?

24 images/sec * 60 min = 1440 images. This was roughly 72 minutes of time taking photos.

I have tried a few different programs, but so far really enjoy DaVinci Resolve as it's free and I was able to figure it out in an evening . https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve

...and finally the popular Lonely Tree below Steptoe Butte. We have had a lot of air glow this past weekend which added an extra element to our photos taken.


A a nice follow up on this one... I had a good friend that saw this image months ago contacted me last month to request the largest canvas print she could fit on an empty wall they had. With the wall being 12' wide and 20' tall and considering they had a budget, we decided on a 6' x 3' size using three 2' x 3' canvas prints from Costco to keep within a budget.

This was a phone picture shared with me, so please note that the walls are white and the print looks much better in person than in this shot. If I was to do this again, I would probably look at other options for a single print, I really hated splitting the tree in half, but with the focus being the Milky way, the tree was split.

Very nice images! My wife and I live in eastern WA and travel to the Palouse frequently. It's nice to visit places with so little light pollution from human habitation close by.
