Is this satisfactory work?

I'm getting the hang of this timelapse business. These are really a compilation of photos i took on a continues basis moving a step to the left every time, you can look at the middle to see how long it took me to take this. I had to fight off other photographers with my monopod for these shots, it is such a busy city. :lol:

Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: Very yes.

I bow to your expertise here, Hamlet. This is amazing work. Like a movie, only not.

I can only imagine the precision it must have taken. It really doesn't look like it was done with a monopod, more like a wheeled base.

Well the monopod is really there so i can get my height correctly every time, i could do this hand held if need be.

Did you do this with a phone?

I mean, don't get me wrong, it's awesome... but... the fact that you did this in *portrait* orientation implies to me that maybe you used a phone to do this... and if that is the case, did you not have a way to turn the phone landscape orientation with the monopod you used?

I don't like that it's in portrait orientation, but if that's because you were limited in how you did this, then I forgive you. :sexywink:

But seriously... it's really cool. :sillysmi:

I shot this with my little d3200. Here is a full resolution picture:

I wanted to get the sky and the people walking on the ground, this square is very tiny so that is really the reason why i shot this in portrait mode.

Oh, it wasn't the resolution that bothered me. It was just the fact that it was in portrait orientation. But I get why you did it, and it's still cool. :sillysmi:

I don't like it either to be honest, but i worked with what i had. I'll post some regular ones if we get some nice weather. BUT NOT TOMORROW! Tomorrow its the football match. :mrgreen:
