That was fantastic! Indeed the flower seemed to be awakening and stretching out (in a phenomenally cosmic way).

[budsnivy]

I have friends who think my orchids have faces ... what until they see your lowii has arms as well! Lovely!

Very nice video! The flower really seems to be singing like a prima donna.

nice project... thankx for the tech info... what media/resolution for originals..??

[sameoldmike]

thanks. The photos were taken with a Canon Powershot A95 on a tripod. The original photos have a resolution of 2592x1944. Needless to say, I have a 5gig version of this video that looks AWESOME, but I can't figure out the best compression method to reduce size and maintain quality. I'm pretty sure I haven't found the best balance.
