Apologize

Published on by Stefano PadovanLeave a comment

Hi followers,I just wanna to apologize because I am not uploading new material.Right now I am in Hamburg where it’s raining since weeks,as soon the weather goes better I will produce new clouds material.With my remote telescope in New Mexico I am doing only variable stars research so…probably you are not interested in it (just numbers) and the Spanish scopes are not remote scopes so I should be there  🙂  I really hope for the next week to have something,When the weather turns good here we have fantastic skies and clouds.

In the meantime if you wanna have fun take a tour to the glorious   www.dackelsociety.com

see you soon

First attempt pin hole time lapse without lens

Published on by Stefano PadovanLeave a comment

So,here is my first attempt just for fun,a Canon 1DS MKII just it’s cup with a pin hole and a remote control that for 30 mins took a pic every 10 secs.Iso at 1600,time at 1/40 that’s it.Focus of course is not perfect but I am working on it.In the meantime I wanna try it for my dackelsociety.com and see what happens.Setting is simple,just take of the lens,make with a pin a small hole with a heated pin in the center of the cap,no more thatn 0,1 mm and try.Infinite is difficult,kinf of closeups fine.
Movie is here,Lightroom as usual.

Clouds Hypnosis

Published on by Stefano PadovanLeave a comment

Do you remember when you were young,laying on the grass looking up at the sky in a lazy spring day?This is the sensation.Clouds goin’ in and out in various layers,painting dreams people and strange figures and you can stay there for hours dreaming and thinking almost about everything.This is what my camera got the other day just in few hours.Simple but hypnotic.There are 2 TVs sets for poor people they said in the past:fireplace and sky.This is one of the two.Enjoy.Canon1DSMKII,Sequence,Lightroom4,Final cut.

House-and-stars

Fast sun & fast clouds

A time lapse sunrise done with a Canon G9 with the zoom at maximum power.This shows that to do time lapse you do not need very special cameras but also a normal digital camera or a mobile can work.Contrast and saturation pumped up of course but the sky was anyway blue and clear.Strong wind from the north and a big ship from right to left on the sea.Enjoy
