But that doesn't mean that clouds make a good time-lapse video.
I have a way to go before I make a video of clouds that is a good one.
It's not terrible. It's just not The Unseen Sea.
I need better clouds. We just don't have dramatic clouds in these parts right now.
I need a better tripod. Some of the bits of this video were taken in stiff breezes and the camera shakes a lot.
I need to use my circular polarizing filter more (when appropriate) to darken the sky and bring out the clouds.
I need plinky music to set the mood. (Not wanting the wrath of YouTube, I used some of their music...I don't know how well the piece I chose worked out.)
I need better cropping, editing, post-production, ...
This video has bits I shot:
- At work the day after we had some really, really dramatic clouds from a monsoonal system
- Around Lake Henshaw near Palomar Mountain
- In Oceanside after shooting my beach and pier videos
I tried.
