Partial Analemma

I haven't posted a time lapse in a while, so here is a crude one that partially shows a sun analemma. If you mapped out the suns location in the sky at the same time over the course of a year, it would form a figure 8. This timelapse shows the bottom loop of the figure 8. Sorry that it is kind of choppy, wasn't planning on generating this lapse ahead of time :)

Bummer that the sun was hidden for 11-13, seems it moved the most there.

A fader between frames may have been less choppy.

Great work! Thanx for sharing :D

this is cool, and its like this because Zenith of the sun (Highest azimuth) varies through the year, like here in NZ (Taking into account daylight savings) earliest zenith is 1.04 on NOv 28th, latest is 1.46 on Mar 4th. Also to make it successfully work, you must choose a time where the sun will be above the horizon on the winter solstice, which you have done (Dec 21 very low but there), its pointless getting the suns position at 6.21 pm on the shortest day!!!
