About 30 years ago, a friend of mine set-up his camcorder and left it for a day to take a time-lapse of clouds from a window ledge in the office building where we worked in Glasgow (plenty of clouds here). That was the one day the window cleaners decided to come around, so his clouds time-lapse included several shots of leg silhouettes as the guys clambered around in front of the camera.

Some people! Well worth the bucks, even better when I mated it to the Proscan editor which made nicely-nice between the two, each capable of controlling the other.

For time lapse plant photography, would it be beneficial and more streamlined to have a plant in a black box with IR LED strips (the reels of the stuff) that switch off/switch over to white LEDs for the shots and then back again to the grow lamps/LEDs - rinse and repeat until finished. If I was going to do a plant time lapse project I'd be inclined to try it that way and possibly tape the IR LED strips above the plants and the white LED's in areas where it's needed for a well lit shot and have the SBC switch the lighting over in code.

I wonder if the Pi camera could also be used as a Astronomy camera like the Skywatcher type of cameras. If it could, it may even help with meteor spotting on clear nights. But it would also require adapting to bright levels during the day and low levels of light at night. The Altair Astro brand uses CMOS chips so there could be a potential for this type of camera working over wifi to be used as a observing camera. So would this work and if it could be done?

Even more frustrating when it's a task I'm sure others have succeeded at with ease. I've been looking for a DVR style program that runs on a Pi to grab video from a UVC capture card. Had no luck with any program recognizing the video stream and also having a programmable timer function, I had thought I might use an ffmpeg script with a cron job to implement it, but something similar to this script may work.

Thanks for the video Chris, great content greatly explained as usual. I've been using a couple of Pi+cam (one is a 3B, the other is a ZeroW) for quite a while now to do full-day timelapses of the sky, so it's a topic that's sort of familiar and of great interest to me. As I was watching the cloud timelapse in the end I noticed that there's a red "circle" of discoloration in the center, that I clearly remembered was a problem when I got started with my timelapses. Turns out the solution is simple when using raspistill to do the captures, you just add the -st commandline parameter and through some sort of coding magic that I took from the raspistill docs and commented in my script as "passing stats for dynamic lens correction", the red circle dissapeared and the resulting image was really good. Since you're using python to do the captures,it'll probably be good to investigate if such a command/parameter/option exists, otherwise to do timelapses of content that could be color sensitive (such as grey/white clouds are), perhaps raspistill should still be used. In my project I take both an image of the East and West sides of the sky from a building, and also use a temperature/pressure sensor to log the data to have it visible along with the captures, in the future I'd like to add wind direction+speed and perhaps the amount on rainfall, but that requires a bit more time and probably more maintenance. This setup has been running for more than 2 years for the West camera and more than 1 year for the East camera + temperature + pressure, I don't share the URL because I don't want to spam, but I could post it if is of interest to someone since it's very related to the topic of the video. Thanks again for all the effort you put in your videos, the result is certainly great!
