Magnificent timelapse by Sy Stepanov

If there’s one thing I absolutely love, it's awesome timelapses. My friend Sy Stepanov knows a thing or two about creating absolutely magnificent timelapse videos.

Flick the HD mode on on the video below, and click on the little button with the outward arrows, because checking it out in full screen gives you the full, mind-blowing effect. Seriously, get this bad boy as big and sharp as you can hand

“In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.”
― Terry Pratchett

“Sooner or later in life everyone discovers that perfect happiness is unrealizable, but there are few who pause to consider the antithesis: that perfect unhappiness is equally unattainable. The obstacles preventing the realization of both these extreme states are of the same nature: they derive from our human condition which is opposed to everything infinite.”
― Primo Levi, Survival in Auschwitz

“In the grand tradition of siblings everywhere, Tessa wanted to kill her brother. Not permanently kill him. Just a casual spacing to get her point across, followed by a quick resurrection and a hot cup of tea.”
― Becky Chambers, Record of a Spaceborn Few
