One Minute Morning - 7 December 2019 (Original Video/Photos)

in #photography5 years ago

When I wake up to check what kind of sunrise may unfold. There are times when I think the thick clouds on the horizon will not yield any color. However, sometimes you get an ominous red color that vanishes well before the official sunrise.

Photographs/video taken on 7 December 2019.

Sunrise Video

For this photo shoot I focused on the distant horizon then turned off the auto-focus, but forgot to turn off the image stabilization on my lens. I strongly suspect that the image stabilization is causing the slight movements seen in the video. I used the shake reduction feature of my editing software to remove as much as possible, but it did not fix all of it.

The photographs in the video cover a 12 minute time-frame. This video stitches together 12 photos starting 25 minutes before the official sunrise.

One Minute Video

All the photographs taken have been compiled into a 1 minute 23 second video. The photographs have not been enhanced, you see what I observed.

Music: "An Upsetting Theme - The Descent" by Kevin MacLeod.

Sunrise Photographs in Sequence

Dawn: The period of the day when light begins to appear in the sky from the sun.
Sunrise: The time when you first see the sun in the morning.

To give you an idea of the when the photographs were taken I am adding a T-time. T-0 is sunrise, T-10 is 10 minutes before sunrise, and T+5 is 5 minutes after sunrise.

This is a representative sample of the photographs in the video. The photographs have not been enhanced, you are seeing what I observed on this morning.

When I think about how wonderful it is to capture these moments, I often realize how little I had to do with making these wonderful moments. For I am just the guy behind the camera.

What an impressive presentation!

The music ,The Descent, really adds atmosphere / pervading mood of the sunrise.

I have watched it many times. Nature is so enjoyable.

Thank you!

It was the first time I have heard that music. As I was scanning for musical matches for this video, "The Descent" caught my attention and seemed to go well with the video.

Have a great week!
Steem on,
Mike
