Baffling Bopha

Like most people last Tuesday, I was also stuck at home waiting for Typhoon Bopha to make landfall. Afternoon came, yet all over the city all we got were slight drizzling and glowering clouds.

It finally got so boring that I went out to have a beer or two despite the threat of strong winds and rain. As I was walking towards my favorite watering hole, I noticed how beautiful the clouds looked in their chaotic dance. It was the first time I saw crisscrossing clouds moving fast.

That was when I got the idea to make a time lapse video. So I immediately went home, totally forgot all about getting a beer, and took this.


The photos used here were taken using an android phone between 3:40-5:40PM on December 4 and rendered on a PC to make this video. There are a total of 2220 photos here with a time interval of 3 seconds between each shot. Secret na lang kung unsa nga android app gigamit, haha

No seriously, the app is just in Google Play store, search for time lapse apps.

My first few tries were a mess, what with one loop cut short because the wind knocked my phone down. Good thing my younger sister had the idea to use the iPhone stand to hold my Samsung phone. Sorry Appple, mwehehehe.

    thanks kt!

    i was quite surprised myself too, wasn't expecting an android phone's cam to produce something like this. gipalit gud nako dayon ang iyang upgrade just to use the full sensor para mas higher ang quality haha.

    i did a sunrise timelapse the next day but since it was still cloudy i didn't get anything spectacular. puhon, when the weather clears out.
