Wow!  I would love to be able to do that some day, or at least know the settings and what-not.  Thanks for sharing the video!

Thanks Adam - It's a little tricky but lots of fun. Basically, you get an intervalometer that you set to take a picture every 30 seconds and let it run all night long. You will end up with 700-800 images. You can then use QuickTime to merge them together into a video. Then add a sound track if you want. I did pull the images into Lightroom to tweak all the images easily a bit before I merged them. It's the same technique I used for the clouds videos I did. You can see them at www.InfoCentre.biz/portfolio.htm, under the VIDEOS section. If you get stuck, give me a shout. I'll be glad to help you through it.

Thank you for explaining it!  OK, I am adding an intervalometer to my wish list.  I appreciate your offer to help me if I get stuck.
