Looks like there's not much happening there either Fogey .....

I'm going stir crazy here.  Can't wait to get the jab and get out and about.

Getting the jab is not a suit of amour Fogey, quite a few weeks for it to kick in AND you will still have to social distance, it will lessen the impact if you do catch it but ...you can still catch it!

Wow - it's really rather hypnotic.

Brilliant! ... I wish I could do a video like that.... I've no idea how though.

I used a intervalometer and took a shot every 2 seconds for something like 45 mins.  It was a case of then taking the images into Lightroom, (in this case - there is  a plethora of open source software to do this), and made the timelapse.
 

Then I took the video into Serif video maker to add the titles and music and that was pretty much it.

My Panasonic FZ2000 has modes I've never used yet, it even does time lapse photograhy, it can be set it to start up to 23hrs 59mins ahead if need be. The recording interval and number of pictures can be set. The camera can be set to automatically take pictures of subjects such as animals or plants as time lapses and create a motion picture. Seeing your brilliant sky video made me stick my nose into my camera's user manual today, it's something I should do more often as this camera never ceases to amaze me... When the weather gets better and hopefully this darn lockdown is lifted I'm going to give it a go.

You certainly have some patience to work that amount of data into the film you produced, well done Jeff

Well done you.   It is a steep learning curve and I'll leave you to stumble - however if you do get stuck, shout and I'll see if I can remember what the hell I did.

I seem to remember I drank the teapot dry waiting for the timelapse video to be processed.

[Kobione]

Very nice Jeff, really shows the build up and movement of the clouds. Well done!

I treated myself to an intervalometer last summer and still haven't got round to using it.... neither have I used the  timelapse  option on my camera... there just aren't enough hours in the day for me at the moment ...... 

That's right what David said Fogey ....sort of  mesmerising  innit ...?  Very nicely presented  too.

The thing is Polly, when I took those series of shots I simply set the camera shooting every 2 seconds and then went indoors to do some chores.  I stopped when the card filled up.  Called multi-tasking, methinks.
