I am trying something a little bit different. This is my first attempt at posting an animated “GIF”, which is basically a file that plays over. I am not sure I know what I am doing here, so let me know if it works for you. Click through to see video if you are on Facebook or Twitter!
This is essentially a short video clip of monarch butterflies I shot as an abstract (unfocused and backlit). I think the monarchs just look like little fairies.
I will post some longer HD video clips soon, but I thought this would be kind of fun.
It works! It looks beautiful!!!
Thanks! Kind of mesmerizing for me.
It works for me, as is. It would also be interesting to see it resolve at the end into something in focus.
Hi David. We think alike. I actually shot it that way in a 3 minute clip, with half out of focus and the rest fading into focus. I will show that eventually as soon as I can put all the video clips together. I am still learning video editing, so that may take a little while. GIFs have to be really short and work better in an endless loop, so I just clipped out some of the abstract.
