Good Creek Fire
The fire was started by a lighting strike the day before. The Okanagan Mountain Park fire was in the same general area so there wasn't much fuel left for this fire to burn. I setup my tripod in the door of the car while I waited in the lineup to get to our camp site (close to the Mount Enas fire). This is a photo every 10 seconds. I needed to do quite a bit of stabilization in post because the tripod wasn't super stable. John Harvey Photo > John Harvey Photo - Camping > Okanagan Camping 3 > Good Creek Fire

Mount Enas Fire
As we got closer to the Mount Enas Fire, we got a better view of the extent of it. 10 second gap between photos. Some stabilization between frame 10 and 150 when we weren't moving. John Harvey Photo > John Harvey Photo - Camping > Okanagan Camping 3 > Mount Enas Fire

Terra Nova Sunset
This is 334 images, one taken every 16 seconds (mistake #1). The exposure started at 1/4 of a second at f20 and ended at 15 seconds at f3.2. Shot ISO 100 the whole time. I missed 6 images because the exposure went from 15 seconds to 20 seconds so when it tried to reshoot 16 seconds later, it was still taking the previous image. I had to change the exposure. I did that on the command line using lines from a spread sheet like exiftool -Exposure2012=-0.43 DSC_09999.dng . The images are turned into a video on the command line using: ffmpeg -framerate 15 -pattern_type glob -i 'DSC*.jpg' -c:v libx264 -filter "minterpolate='mi_mode=blend:fps=30'" -profile:v high -level 4.2 -pix_fmt yuv420p out_compat31.mp4

Nara Claira And John Playing
There were a few problems with this shoot - I didn't lock the exposure so it did change a little. The Autofocus is still on so sometimes you can see it change or hunt.

Clairas First Bike Ride
This was Claira's first day riding a bike! We had practiced on this bike before (It used to be Nara's) but today she was able to do it without Dad holding on. She had two fall downs, but was a trooper and got up quickly to keep riding. Nara kept giving her High Fives because I think it means Nara can ride her bike more on outings. I couldn't take this as video as I was often running behind her and I don't have a steady cam. People: Claira

Waiting For Fireworks
I took a photo every 30 seconds for about an hour and a half. I changed the exposure 4 times and then fixed the exposure in post. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2022 to 2005 > August 2017 > Waiting For Fireworks

Waiting For The Northern Lights
The dust spots on the sensor are kind of painful. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2022 to 2005 > September 2014 > Waiting For The Northern Lights

The flow is from Squamish. There is one asteroid streak in this movie. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2022 to 2005 > December 2015 > Porteau Cove Facing North

Siwash Rock Making Star Trails
This is a 100 image, 30 seconds an image time lapse. I was planning on stacking them and lightening them to get star trails but the clouds flying by made that much harder than I anticipated. This is a 15 frames per second video. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2022 to 2005 > December 2015 > Siwash Rock Making Star Trails

Thunderstorm Over Vancouver
I really like that you can see the stars at the top of the frame for roughly half of the movie. This is roughly 200 frames at 20seconds each (every 21 seconds) for a little over an hour of time. The camera ran out of battery power as it wasn't fully charged when it started. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2022 to 2005 > June 2016 > Thunderstorm Over Vancouver

Clouds Rolling Over Downtown From Cypress
This is 215 images at 10 seconds each - roughly 35 minutes elapsed. I had to stop because the exposure what out of range - I could no longer take 10 seconds exposures. The exposure was shot auto and then corrected in post which wasn't easy. There is some motion in the tripod - I think got warmer or I touched it a bit. I corrected the motion in post. I have blended the images to make this a 45fps video and to try and remove some of the residual brightness flickering.
