Astropolis Start Party Jodłów 2010 | A timelapse short film

Astropolis Star Party is an annual event organized by astropolis.pl, the major amateur astronomy community in Poland. The stagazers from the entire Poland come together each year to admire and photograph the beauty of the sky above us and mystery of the space.

  13. Walter Fischer says:
    2010-10-05 01:39:01

    Amazing movie. What would be the aperture time of the deep night shots and the numbers of shot per minute?
    The colored fogs looks great.

    That's awesome! The best part is showing the clouds being disbursed. I love how determined the amateur astronomers look despite the clouds during the day. I finally have my equipment for astrophotography, so I look forward for star parties like this.

    2010-10-07 01:36:23

  66. Barry Flewitt says:
    2011-02-26 10:08:15

    Visually amazing. Music great.

    I wonder if you fixed your camera to one of those motorised telescopes that followed the stars and did a time lapse, then the star would stay still while the Earth would revolve around it, the opposite of a normal time lapse.

  67. Param Aggarwal says:
    2011-04-08 07:21:20

    Wow!

  68. Bryan Long says:
    2011-04-24 17:29:27

    Great video. I love how you capture the culture behind the event by showing everyone setting up the telescopes. It is also revealing to show the setup behind the time-lapse telescope shots. I am just getting into time-lapse and have not viewed any other time-lapse sequences as seen through an artistic telescope's eye -- great work! What ISO do you use for the telescope shots?

  69. Patryk Kizny says:
    2011-04-24 17:34:01

    Thanks! It was probably 800 on a Canon 30D.
