Unleash A bird inside a cage forgets how to fly, a dolphin inside a pool forgets how to dive, a lion inside a Zoo forgets how to hunt, a human without freedom of expression forgets how to live.
In my last time lapse I recorded the movement of the moon during night time, but now I wanted to see what it feels like with some light coming from a sunset so just before the the sun relapsed I captured that moment which is not too dark nor too bright. I noticed that the light varies a lot in such a moment but I really liked the colours that the sky reflected from the sun behind me. I was lucky enough to get some nice clouds flowing in the opposite direction.
I had to stabilise the camera with some weight cause the wind was blowing with some strength and before starting the shoot I noticed I was getting some camera shake.

In my latest attempt to capture time, I decided to get things a little bit more exciting so I removed light from the formula and here we go. Nice bright stars and a full moon phase. I remained there for about an hour shooting a long exposure shot at about 4 seconds at f8, the challenge was to get the windmill well enough without loosing the stars and getting a burst from the moons reflection. It was quite cold but I think the sensor got quite warm to get these shots. I would have liked to get some air planes in the background from the nearby airport but it seems this part of the runway is no fly zone

Looking up towards the skies in Birgu, the Gardjola overlooks the Grand Harbour, one amongst many. I wanted to keep this time-lapse as minimal as possible so the camera was placed just under the pointed fortification looking upwards as close to the ground as possible to reduce camera shake. The blue sky created just the right contrast with the yellow stone.
The weather was perfect, the sun was just right and the clouds were nice and moving fast, so it was just the perfect mix for some time-lapse. This time I decided to head towards the fortifications in the Grand harbour in Malta. I headed towards Isla where down by the sea I could get a good close view of the grandeur of these fortifications. Whilst creating this time-lapse I could not miss the great architectural feat of creating such invincible structures.
I was also lucky enough to get some nice movement by ships and boats in the harbour.
