Specifically, watching the change of its position as it rose every day by photographing the exact same frame at sunrise every day for 365 days. Or, I assume there were 365 - I'm not sure what happened if she got sick or had to leave town. Maybe she never did.<BR/><BR/>I liked the experiment, and I thought it was really neat to watch the sun move across the frame and back. However, I think she missed the mark with her chosen landscape - she set up facing a strip mall in town. It would've been such a more dramatic series if she'd set up the same distance away from her house but down the other road, overlooking a river valley.<BR/><BR/>In any case, I think you should try to keep the experiment up, it's so neat to watch the changes. But not to worry too much if you have to miss a week here or there.Seabrookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09400079400485962650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15891819.post-26320632398527239732008-05-18T13:44:00.000-04:002008-05-18T13:44:00.000-04:00Bonjour Carolyn,You are certainly up to something ...Bonjour Carolyn,<BR/><BR/>You are certainly up to something new and impressive, viz. to concentrate on one tiny spot.<BR/><BR/>One year round and then lets have those photos.<BR/><BR/>GeorgGeorghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05379915142029115257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15891819.post-39820166634415573952008-05-17T08:53:00.000-04:002008-05-17T08:53:00.000-04:00The leaves have grown so much this week in your lo...The leaves have grown so much this week in your location and here.

That would be neat.<BR/>I wish there were time lapse movies of many places here in central PA. I think it would be interesting to see the neighborhood where I live morph from forest to farm to suburbia. Of course, I would like to see the photography continue on into the future--and perhaps it would return to forest some day.KGMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05165941950953938943noreply@blogger.com
