1 photo every 15 minutes every day - houston skyline
I spent a while planning this out and it seems to be working. Critiques welcome!!
Basically 1 Nikon camera tethered to a computer, updating a scene of downtown houston every 15 minutes all day, every day. Here's the link; http://www.customminds.com/texascityscape/ ----------------------------------- Problems I am experiencing; I am shooting through a thick glass, so there is a bit of ghosting in specific areas. The camera auto settings are causing white balance issues and bleaching / too much darkening over the course of a day. due to my batch processing, i have to delete the photo before reposting the new one. a 2 second delay between picture posts can be noticed if you hit refresh at the right time. ----------------------------------- Benefits of this format; In my opinion it seems to be better than normal webcam updates. With unlimited bandwidth you can technically post a 20 megapixel image of ____ at intervals on the fly.

Maybe a rubber lens cap that directly contacts the glass will help. due to my batch processing, i have to delete the photo before reposting the new one. a 2 second delay between picture posts can be noticed if you hit refresh at the right time. Try something like cp new.jpeg archive-`date -utc +%f`.jpeg mv new.jpeg houston-texas.jpg # atomic unless you cross # file system borders instead of rm houston-texas.jpg # not really needed cp new.jpeg houston-texas.jpg ? -Wolfgang |
