The Milky Way at Cottonwood Pass

[JimFox]

This is the timelapse of the Milky Way from Cottonwood Pass. If you saw my photo I posted of this, I mentioned that there was not a lot of cars going up and down the road. You will see a huge gap in cars in the timelapse, I think that was from about 1am to 4am. Fortunately just as the Milky way was getting closer to the edge of the frame a car went by. That's the sequence I used for my photo.

That showed a lot of airplane flight paths. Far more planes than cars.

It's hard to avoid planes and satellites today. I am so used to them by now I just kind of tune them out I guess.

Very cool video Jim. That is a lot of footage to see in a short time lovely to watch.

Thanks Trent! I actually when processing the video of the timelapse normally speed up the video by 100% as people were complaining it went too slow. But in this one, I didn't do that, I left it at the speed it becomes after stacking all of the images. I left it slower this time because I had such few cars driving the road, I wanted to visually be on the screen longer. I actually liked the movement, so maybe I will go back to this slower paced timelapse on my next ones.
