The Day In Fast-Forward

I stumbled across this Web page recently.  It's a collection of time-lapsed photos taken from a west-facing web-cam atop the Atmospheric Sciences and Geophysics building on UW campus.  The web-cam snaps a picture every ten seconds and the server stitches them together to make a movie -- the day in fast-forward.  The movies start an hour before sunrise and go until an hour after sunset.  There have been a few recent days that I think are stunning -- this one looks like a freight train passing.

Yes, I admit it.  After a few drinks I spent half an hour watching the past month go by in fast-forward...  Oddly addictive, actually.

There's also a few screw-ups.  But, hey, you get what you pay for.
