24 Hour Time Lapse Photographic Video of the Blizzard in Washington, DC on Feb 5th-6th, 2010

This is a 3800 frame time lapse of the record snow fall that fell in the Washington, DC area on Feb 5th -6th, 2010. This was shot with a Nikon D-3 controlled by a Mac Book Pro firing a frame every 15 seconds. You will note my neighbors sheep periodically scampering about and at 2:09 one of his trees weighted down by the snow, falls over. The Time Lapse was featured on Good Morning America on Feb. 10,2010.

The music is by the Anonymous 4 from the CD Gloryland. The tune is called Mercy-Seat.

can't you have scraped away the snow on the windowsill outside so we could see how much snow was actually on the ground at the end????

I guess I could have opened the window in a Blizzard and pushed some snow off the roof. The effect I was going for was to show how fast the snow built up. There was so much snow, that at the 3:09 mark, I moved the camera up on the tripod. It was good enough to be shown on Good Morning America and ABC World News.

snow is very reflective - thats why you can see it at night

Also shooting at ISO 1000 helps....8-)

Great job man -- and I love the music. I Shazamed it and got nothing. Who is singing that? Sounds like a church choir -- a really good one.

Now I can imagine what my last conscious view would be, as I froze to death in a snowdrift.
