Light trails and trains....

Inspired by @Montfrooij comment on the Christmas day version of this timelapse to try it again with the Pocket 3 on the home made magnet mount.

Manual exposure set to 1 sec/ISO 50.






Created with Osmo Pocket 3.

A shot of the Pocket 3 on the magnet mount surviving in 35mph gusts.

Now that is more interesting for sure!

And it seems to be super sharp, so no moving around.

And the people walking the path under the bridge dont appear.

The last one has a huge magnet and so string Ive had to print a cover for it.

I've visions of you heaving at it to get it off the lamp-post afterwards

Was that when nothing happened?

Magnificent light trails.  Despite the gusty winds the footage is very smooth.  Great job DA.

With a 1 second shutter Id expect them to be nicely blurred if they did appear.  

Montfrooij Posted at 2-6 01:14
Were you  ?

I was a bit disappointed,  and it was a giant waste of time.

Blériot53 Posted at 2-6 01:32

Nah,  it wasnt that bad at all,  although Im cautious as to not pull the magnet out of the mount and leave it behind.  

Blériot53 Posted at 2-6 01:34

Well there was some motion in the sky.... But that was all.

thanks DT,  the magnet mount has proven itself today.  And it's super nice it goes un noticed like this.

Unless they stand still, they will.

I can imagine

Montfrooij Posted at 2-6 07:10

Exactly.

Yes it was eating into valuable bucks fizz time.

Yes it was eating into valuable bucks fizz time.

What's that?

Montfrooij Posted at 2-6 07:20
What's that?

Champagne and Orange juice mixed.  

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 07:24
Champagne and Orange juice mixed.

Ah, I get it

Nice. I'd never have the patience...

1 second shutter was great for good motion without too much blur. Well done.

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 06:59
Nah,  it wasnt that bad at all,  although Im cautious as to not pull the magnet out of the mount and leave it behind.

Hence the need for a case?

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 07:00

If there's no train action he will always be disappointed

You're very welcome DA.  No doubt that magnet mount is "wind proven".

It's been called here a Bucks Fizz for as long as Ive known it,  you can even buy it pre mixed under the name but I prefer to use better quality ingredients.

Yes,  and like an idiot I didnt put it back in the side of my bag after showing it to someone so got to my location this morning and didn't have it,  and as it was raining flying was out too.

The little magnet cover is pretty good at stopping stray things attaching to it,  although it's not perfect due to the strength of the magnet.
