NEWS! ‘Dubai 3.0′ planned for May 2012. Full frame RAW workflow to be used – see you soon!
This is an upgrade.
In January 2011 I made my first timelapse. ‘Dubai 1.0′. 15 months on and ‘Dubai 2.0′ has been coded, in beta and now is in ‘gold release’
I have used the same kit, albeit for one new lens and a couple of ND filters. My camera is dying
Photographed over 2.5 weeks, one to two sequences per night.
The soundtrack is by The American Dollar, used under license – thanks John and Rich for everything.
You can find out more about the band and download 9 of their ‘best of’ tracks for FREE here:
