Five Days and Nights of Eastern Sydney and the Sky Above

A period of relentlessly clear and clement weather in the spring of 2024 provided the opportunity to capture a very long time-lapse. At 3600 X normal speed, that comes to 2 minutes of video.

Five days of the sun and moon rising, planets and stars drifting upwards, while on the ground there are events at the Allianz Stadium and the Sydney Cricket Ground, and the flickering twinkle of the moving traffic and building lights.

The video commenced at 9:19am on Wednesday the 18th of September, and ended at 9:30am on Monday the 23rd of September.
