14 Days Timelapse of U.S. East Coast in 10 Minutes, across New York, Charleston, Savannah

Two weeks of non-stop shooting, 1600GB - 62,000 of raw image files along with 500GB of rendered video files to combine into this piece.
After transiting Panama Canal, our ship cross the Caribbean Sea into Atlantic Ocean and arrive at New York, Savannah then Charleston. The timelapse was taken over span of 15 days, some less interesting parts were speed up or faded out (cargo work, daylight hours with no clouds). Most night shots were done on 25 second shutter speed at 30 seconds interval, with port arrivals and departures at 4~8s interval.
note The time-lapse was presented different than actual port rotation, its narrative was not linear. I purposefully reshuffled Charleston before New York because it'd be anti-climatic to start the timelapse with dark moody rainy day arriving at New York.

You read all the comments so here’s your video’s impact. I work in Neurology, I have to perform noninvasive testing on children (Electroencephalograms). These exams are painless but many people and children are still very frightened. I have a short list of videos I play for people to help them relax and yours are becoming a favorite. I have two patients who have had repeated testing that ask to watch the boat captain while I prepare them for an exam. Thank you.

[@JeffHK]

i am so happy to hear!! i need to make more for them so they have more selection!!

[@LuvBorderCollies]

As a kid growing up on a farm one of the countless cool things of the lifestyle was seeing the night sky>!! In the 1970's there was major explosion of high powered security lights for farms. Not only was their power so much more bright but they stayed on all night. Before that, "yard" lights were a big incandescent bulb operated by a manual switch. After that time period the details of the night sky were much less clear. After moving to a city....forget it. However, I don't recall the sky as clear as that over the ocean, that's really remarkable and cool off the charts>!!

Maby having a way to visualize a map and where you are would be cool, just make sure its small and not the main focus. maybe a dark theme map :) I hope this channel keeps growing for you, its what so many people wanted!

[@kopibing]

At 7:40, there are three stars in a straight line that you can see quite clearly. On the left is a bright star and somewhere to its right is a “dying star” so it’s a little orangey. That’s Orion’s Belt. Can always see it when I sail in the South China Sea. Great video!

automatically by phone app qdslrdashboard

[@dokilar1]

I could so very easily sit out there on one of them containers all night and watch the sky, absolutely stunning

[@sparkfrost1814]

Other timelapse are taken on spot... but this taking it while moving around the world... i think this is the first except those from space.. taking a timelapse around the world...

[@dibendu.s]

Boy, oh boy! Wouldn't god descend down to earth if he saw this? And the music, I go high without weed. :D

[@spoupp668]

i hope you see this JeffHK i love these kind of time lapses and cant find any anywhere else that are like yours! they are really relaxing and everyone would be very happy if you made more! x

[@JeffHK]

Thanks! More coming!

[@markauble3928]

Have you ever had that dream where you were flying? And you had some beautiful new perspective on the world that you've never experienced before? And it just made you happy? That's how this video made me feel. Thank you, Jeff. All of your hard work is art in the truest sense.

[@lowi2525]

when you lived in the city your whole life, seeing something like this feels like a CGI

[@stiimuli]

and some of the "space is fake" guys actually say that. Makes me sad for humanity =(

[@ahmadfrhan5265]

if all people see the milky way, then there will be no atheists

[@stiimuli]

@@ahmadfrhan5265 That's both demonstrably false and laughably absurd.

[@ahmadfrhan5265]

@@stiimuli in atheism nothing is "false" or " correct " since everything is subjective in atheism. in atheism brain is nothing, but an organ and you can't base anything on it. keep laughing because laughing and not laughing is the same weight " literally nothing"- Richard Dawkins. 🤭 Edit: watching the channels you follow, I came to a conclusion that you are intellectually virgin.

[@stiimuli]

@@ahmadfrhan5265 Its hilarious when theists try to tell people what atheism is and what atheists believe. Its like someone who has never seen a car before try to describe a Formula 1 race.

[@wandaburns8075]

Amazing, just beautiful. It must be awe inspiring to be at sea on a dark, starry night.

[@TheFilwud]

Stunning timelapse, the boiling clouds, the stars and things at night, the colours, beautiful. must be an excellent camera to capture the low light with the colours and detail. Like others I would like to have seen the loading/unloading as well. Keep at it, this is epic!

[@paul1e]

Where is million views: Soon

[@ZuzuFlies]

The sky..the weather...the stars... it’s beautiful!

[@trevorn2454]

In my first year of marine navigation course in Ontario and just curious why you chose container ships?

[@TheVOYD16]

TIL: There are "landing strips" for boats. The red and green lights in the water on either side of the boat are guides for the boat. Awesome!

[@Jennifer.Ridgeway]

The sky views in these area just amazing

[@Running-with-skizers]

It's truly amazing the work that must be involved getting the big ships in and out of a port I couldn't believe your ship was able to be turned around in savanna Georgia like that

[@JonSherwoodChikichumba]

These videos are partly what drove me to get back in to photography and start on astrophotography. I really want to start my own timelapes videos.

[@GettingOlderByTheDay71]

These timelapses are what drew me to your channel a few years back. Now that you are a Pilot apprentice, you won't be able to make these anymore

[@samu298]

Beautiful 🇧🇷

[@Tjallemeister]

Would love to see a minimap in one of the corners showing where the ship is.

[@applesthepi718]

I suggested that as well, it would be very cool to visualize that.

[@KannyValentine]

I also was thinking of commenting for a small map. I agree.

[@derkaderka808ify]

I thought that on the first too, such awesome video 😀

[@stephensmalldridge9504]

Thank you Jeff As a retired Sea Captain These bring back the best memories of my life 🌕 🌠 🏝🚢🏝

[@Black_hole306]

Do you see that many stars in the sea?

[@stephensmalldridge9504]

@@Black_hole306 yes absolutely, far out at see on clear nights there is absolutely zero obstruction or background light pollution.. just the milky 🌌 at its finest One time when the sea was like glass and no moon, I stopped the ship and shut everything down and we just drifted silently, from the reflections on the water you couldn't tell where sky stopped and sea begins It was like we were just drifting in outer space. 🌌🌌🌌 🌌🚢🌌 🌌🌌🌌

[@michaelmonton5363]

Charleston, New York, Savannah are some of the major container ports in the US east coast. It's an amazing and awesome feeling watching your timelapse as it reminds me of those ports and voyages. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing your fantastic videos. Bon Voyage!

[@minicong9517]

That looked absolutely amazing. 2 Weeks on the ____ Atlanta flows beautifully in that timelapse. Keep up the great work we all love to see it.

[@Majerly_Annoyed]

Amazing to see all the air traffic into JFK starting around 5:40 the flights inbound and outbound from the NYC air space. Crazy to see in time-lapse!

[@Cinebon]

Another absolutely stunning time lapse Jeff
