Jaw-droppingly gorgeous video captures the Milky Way as Earth spins



Tempest Milky Way requires very little exposition before you watch the video. It's essentially 3 minutes of incredible, jaw-dropping scenery as the Earth spins, the stars revolving through the night sky as if riding a conveyer belt. The clarity and detail presented is absolutely astounding, giving you the chance to watch the sky in breathtaking color. Obviously, it reminds us a little of another timelapse video of the Milky Way, which was also quite a hit.
Randy Halverson created this video entirely using views of the sky in South Dakota. He was challenged getting good shots of storms and stars. Since all of the scenes were shot via timelapse photography, it wouldn't take much to ruin a chunk of footage. If the storm wasn't moving just the right way, or if the lightning wasn't quite right, then Randy couldn't use the images. This video became an endeavor of careful patience and detail-oriented composition.
The video was shot between June to August. The music was created by Simon Wilkinson at The Blue Mask and Randy's cameras include a Canon 5D Mark II, a Canon 60D, and others. Randy used a camera dolly from Dynamic Perception to achieve steady motion in the video.

Must-see video of the day: Time-lapse Milky Way



The above video does justice to the considerable grandeur of both our natural world here on planet Earth and our relatively small position within the much greater scheme of the Milky Way galaxy. Complete with appropriately epic soundtrack, the time-lapse film "The Mountain" from Norwegian filmmaker Terje Sorgjerd captures plenty of sublime footage of both the stars and El Tedie, Spain's highest peak.
