I love watching the flight tests live, but seeing the ⚡ storm just before the engine relight was truly special. 🤩

Yes, that was a particularly nice group of cycleways. 😄 But if you like the cycle tracks in Sydney, you should plan to ride the ones in Canberra! It's certainly on my bucket list.

I was on a mission! I got down to Bunnings, found the stuff and rode home all within 30 minutes!

@@DrewTubeish I gotta get me one of those bikes one day. I can see myself riding around terrorizing the neighbourhood ! 😁

I'm lucky to have access to many free tracks to use as soundtracks to the videos. :)

😂

I checked it out* on the way up. Where were you?!? 😜 * th-cam.com/video/A6H8zxU2VYE/w-d-xo.html

@@DrewTubeish I was cheating, at another café. Leaving for Sydney Wednesday to help with funeral on Friday. Call you when I get there to make plans.

See the TH-cam: Settings | Playback Speed | .75, .5 & .25 You might also enjoy the entire series of videos once you know how to slow the playback speed. th-cam.com/play/PL5OWk_QoeBnxDnePoDTpR02agCmDDDiY_.html

I hope you like this playlist. It has the same videos, but slower. :) th-cam.com/play/PL5OWk_QoeBnwDLqJzq66e6RqQeAaS0bu1.html

Thanks! It's part of a series that starts on the 24th of January. th-cam.com/play/PL5OWk_QoeBnxDnePoDTpR02agCmDDDiY_.html

Thanks! Honestly, the best part of this video is the soundtrack IMO. The haze made the stars very dim, and there was no interesting cloud action during the night. It's always a gamble when doing time lapses. Things you hope might happen, don't, and things you hope don't happen (like drenching rain putting the camera at risk) do! Having said that, I'm glad you liked it. 😁

@@DrewTubeish Well, I agree the soundtrack is great but I liked it al, good job. No, don't risk the camera in the rain mate!

That was a good example of what the GoPro9 can achieve in night mode. It should be noted that the view from Sydney is full of light pollution and, being on the coast, atmospheric humidity for the escaping light to illuminate. The vid even includes some faint clouds. Also, the prominent moon would have made it more difficult for the camera to balance the light levels. What the camera can do with the minimal light and less-than-ideal conditions makes me want to get inland to the dryer areas towards Australia's desert regions. The view of the southern skies should be /awesome/ from there. But I'll keep catching all-sky night vids from here on occasion. It is /so/ easy to start the camera running, then go to bed. Fun to see in the morning what it captured.

@@DrewTubeish I hadn't factored in city light polution. Our skies are fabulous when the moon is not so bright. Looks like I have some more fun to come soon.

Thank you! 😄 I should do more at that super-fast speed, and start before dawn to catch the sunrise as well.

@@DrewTubeish what city is in your foreground? I will have sea in my foreground for a few days. I'm looking forward to capturing some great 'cloudage'.

@@CloudsatKathys Most of my videos are captured in Sydney, facing east from Redfern (where I live) to view Bondi Junction on the skyline. I also have some time-lapses from the beaches and National Parks around Sydney, my sis' place in Canberra and other scenic locations. Yeah, seaside can be great fun. I've been trying to get a good video of tides, but it needs to be a slow rate of photos to show the effect. Great cloud action, usually, but I think you'd have to pick one or the other as the focus. A tricky choice, since I love clouds so much!

@@DrewTubeish I'll pick clouds. You're in a different hemisphere to me here in France. Butwe share the same sky (eventually) lol

Here is a crop of a frame with a superb bolt of lightning. I think it was from the previous video taken the same night, but thought you might enjoy it. facebook.com/andrew.thompson.oz/posts/pfbid02GWFUuhvZvVghnwSk7Zs5Q95wFvCeZMsxeACb8umoUuyTm6uq41qQnn8byLRY1jjal

Thanks! It ran longer, but the camera was on the wrong mode and the vid faded to white soon after. Still, happy I got that 15 seconds worth. :) Doing an all-sky vid at 5 sec per shot, at the moment.
