Tempest Milky Way: a stunning example of time-lapsed photography

Produced by Randy Halverson and shot in central South Dakota, this is a stunning example of time lapsed photography of our Milky Way galaxy with a backdrop of electrical storms in the background.


From the Vimeo page:
"One of the challenges in making this video, was trying to get good storm with stars shots. The opportunity doesn't come along very often, the storm has to be moving the right speed and the lightning can overexpose the long exposures. I had several opportunities this summer to get storm and star shots. In one instance, within a minute of picking up the camera and dolly, 70mph winds hit. One storm was perfect, it came straight towards the setup, then died right before it reached it."

3 Incredible Examples of Time Lapsed Photography (videos)

You've probably already heard of these two videos - The Mountain, and Aurora.  They are both incredible examples of time lapsed photography by Terje Sorgjerd, who is a passionate landscape and video photographer.  From his Facebook page:
I have been published many times in some of the world biggest press and media outlets including, but not limited to: CNN, NBC, USA Today, Reuters, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, The Guardian, Wall Street Journal, Weather Channel and The Washington Post, and Good Morning America.

I am probably most well known for my unique photos of the Iceland volcano Eyjafjallajokull, which erupted in 2010, leaving an immediate impact on our modern society halting air-traffic between North America and Europe for over a week.
Take a look at these three videos, and experience the Milky Way and Northern Lights in a unique way.
