Decided to do my own coral time lapse

Its not the greatest, but I decided to experiment with it. unfortunately my camera battery died before any real results could be captured. Lighting is a bit weird since its under blue led moon lighting, but im still happy with it.

How long did u shot for?

 

[toddmau5]

Errrrr I need to do the math, looks like 110 minutes until the battery died, I was going to let it go over night.

very cool

Very nice. It is fun to see all the changes that the coral goes through in that short period. I'm still wondering what that "spasm" is at 0.10 seconds. Weird!

The spasm seemed to be what ever they did when they got the mysis the back center head seemed to do a lot of moving around

are you planning on doing that with any other corals, if so you can add to music.

This was like a proof of concept for me, found the flaws in my set up. New lens is here, I need to order an ac adapter so the camera doesn't die on me half way through again lol. I'd like to do the acans again, and our trachyphillia. Other then that I'm open to suggestions, I'll probably never get to the coralmorphologic level, but it's fun.
