In addition to our still imaging, Full Moon Photography is a master at time
lapse animations. The links below will take you to various animations of the
night sky, often at observatories in Southern Arizona. Most last from dusk until
dawn.
Still images from most of these animations are available as prints. If you
don't see them in our galleries,

This all night time lapse was made at the peak of Mt. Lemmon looking towards
the northeast. You'll see a huge number of aircraft flying east and west, cars
moving along roads in the San Pedro valley below and a number of things in the
night sky, including the Zodiacal Light before dawn. The bright object in the
morning sky is the planet Venus.
