Sunday in the Park: Hobler Park in Montgomery Township
The “Sunday in the Park” event with the Montgomery Friends of Open Space was at Hobler Park. It was a clear but cold late autumn morning, with frost on the brush. Images of plants, birds, and an art work installation by Kate Graves.
House Renovation: Outside Views
I set up the Mindrain Astro motion control head to take 360 degree images of my backyard. The house renovation project is in progress. The roof has been replaced, and the new siding is in progress. The deck is gone and the patio just started. The Astro was programmed to trigger a Fuji X-T1 camera with a Zeiss 12 mm f/2.8 lens periodically as it rotated the camera in a complete circle. The images were then processed into the following time-lapsed videos. Later in the evening I tried night sky sequence (but only rotating the camera 120 degrees.
