A forest year.



Samuel Orr made this from 40,000 photographs:
"The camera was set to snap a photo between once every 10 seconds and once every 10 minutes at certain key times of the year (snowfall, spring, fall colors)."

Great visuals, but mute the horseshit sound.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

So where was his house?

Of course the Star of the piece is the Sun roaring aloft like a NASA space shot and causing the rain, snow, wind and photosynthesis that creates the food for man.

kjbe કહ્યું...

I miss green.

Robert Cook કહ્યું...

The sound was part of what made it so great!

Curious George કહ્યું...

I like the forest sounds. The drum of the woodpecker. Singing of the frogs.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

The theme of the day should be downsizing. Watching the green forest leaves wither in time lapse is a metaphor for the US Dollar greenbacks.

All we have left to save us from a cold winter of discontent with 50 cent dollars is the Carbon energy reserves diligently grown over of millions of years of this video and stashed as Sun made riches. And it's all ours as soon as Obama's Gang lets it out of the prison they diligently put it into for Mythical reasons.

@traditionalguy: Just outside Bloomington, IN according to the Petapixel link. I would have guessed Mid-Atlantic/Appalachian, myself.

edutcher કહ્યું...

Very cool.

Hollyweird in its Golden age couldn't have improved it.

JAL કહ્યું...

Guess he edited out the critters.

Some place garage should have been able to shout "Squirrel!!1!"

I have seen this one or one like it before (I think the one I saw was Europe some place.)

The Meadehouse duo could one up this with a year around Lake Mindota. Just link the Althouse photo stream and there it goes. There would be no shortage of animals.

Nihimon કહ્યું...

I found it strangely depressing that it started and ended with Winter instead of Spring.

Larry Davis કહ્યું...

I live out in the country about 100 miles north of where this takes place. What a wonderful thing it is, to see this unfold each year. There IS a reason to live in "fly over country!"

Debbie Andrews કહ્યું...

Would love to see Chip Ahoy insert an animated GIF of Zeus the Labrador trotting through those woods.

Ipso Fatso કહ્યું...

The part I like best is when Obama rises in the back ground each morning, just like the sun, spreading his warth & love to each and every creature. He is our sun.

pm317 કહ્યું...

I wish his added music was not there. How nice it would ahve eben to just listen to the nature's sounds.

Phil 314 કહ્યું...

Except for the wolf and ? elk, all the sounds were Eastern forest sounds.

I miss those.

અજ્ઞાત કહ્યું...

I tried, but I couldn't see the Forest because all the trees were in the way.

Nini કહ્યું...

I didn't see the rain.

Unknown કહ્યું...

The year starts and ends with winter.
I loved it. It could be used to show how the sun's position in the sky influences the seasons. I may "borrow" it for a library lesson on seasons.

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

@wyo sis, I'm also borrowing this for my class. Love the sun angle changes.

Synova કહ્યું...

I turned the sound down and could still only watch about half... maybe if I turned the sound off.

Or something.

અજ્ઞાત કહ્યું...

Love all of it, gorgeous.
