Jake and Stacey's Wedding Ceremony

My cousin Jake got married, and our hotel room had a perfect view of the ceremony from the windowsill. Images were taken once every four seconds.
Setting Up Camp at Sugarloaf

Marina and I went camping with some MIT friends and their significant others. We set up camp the night before hurricane Irene hit the White Mountains in New Hampshire. Tents were pitched just before dusk. Photos were taken once every three seconds with an automatically adjusted exposure.
Sunset Over Oak Ridge

This is the sunset on S. Illinois Ave. in Oak Ridge, TN. We don't have sunsets like these in the north.
Driving from Wilmington, DE to the Chesapeake Bay

Mattia and I drove from our grandmother's house in Wilmington, DE to a cabin on the Chesapeake bay for my cousin's bachelor party. We set the camera on a tripod, wedged between the driver's and passenger's seats, pointing out the windshield. Photos were taken every three seconds with a very short exposure.
Traffic in New York City

Marina and I stopped over in New York on our way to Delaware, and discovered the new Highline park. The city has finally transformed an old elevated subway track into an elevated pedestrian park. At one end, there is a mini-ampitheater where you can watch traffic on a busy street from above. Photos were taken every five seconds with a half second exposure.
Dinner at the Cheesecake Factory

We set the time lapse camera at the corner of the table to watch the meal at warp speed. A picture was taken every two seconds, for about 90 minutes until the battery died.
Boston Skyline at Sunset

This video was taken over two hours from 7:25PM to 9:25PM on June 30th from the 6th floor of the MIT faculty club.
Clouds Forming on Mt. Chocorua, NH

This is a 10 minute time lapse video taken on top of Mt. Chocorua in Conway, NH. Pictures were taken every two seconds. You can see the shadows of clouds passing along the woods on the mountains below, and the formation of many little clouds as well.
Boston at Night

This is a compliation of four 10 minute time lapse videos taken at night in downtown Boston. Images were taken every two seconds. The compilation includes the Boston public library at Copley Square, a divided road on Boylston St., an intersection at the Boston Common, and the Loews theater on the common.
