This Infinite Loop Timelapse Spins the Earth While the Stars Stay Still
If you point your camera at the sky and film, the stars will arc overhead. That’s because your camera is attached to a giant spinning orb called Earth. This interesting 24 hour time-lapse from YouTuber AlphaPhoenix stabilises the stars by spinning the footage in the opposite direction to Earth’s rotation.
AlphaPhoenix shot the time-lapse over 24 hours with a Sony A6000 and Samyang 12mm f/2.0. Each second of the video is an hour of real-time, as the 30fps time-lapse was created from one photo every 2 minutes.
By focusing on the North Star and rotating the image at the same speed as the Earth’s movement, AlphaPhoenix was able to freeze the stars in place as day turned to night, with beautiful results.
He also posted this behind-the-scenes video, showing how he managed to capture 24-hour footage from his window, using a shroud composed of two towels, a t-shirt, and a wizard hat (well, the leftovers of a wizard hat).
FANTABULOUS!!!

Corona is my favorite type of northern lights. Watch what happens when Sean points the camera straight up!!!
To me, viewing this live here in Alaska, and even through this excellent video, my heart lights up! Displays such as this say something magnificent about the glory of our Creator!
“…the invisible things of Him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity….” – Romans 1:20
Sean is based out of North Pole, Alaska, near Fairbanks.

In fact, his relationship with lions is so spectacular that many have nicknamed Kevin “The Lion Whisperer.” (source)

Harvey, my Irish Setter on my Triumph 750
He could ride for a few miles before tiring.
My father took this from in front of our house in Bloomington, Minnesota,
a few years before I moved out west — without Harvey 🙁

This is so sad now. If Americans only knew….
I’ve watched about 50 Distant Shores’ episodes: Distant Shores The Sailing Adventure TV Series. The two on Syria were among the most impactful, because they opened my eyes as to how wonderful this country was, before the CIA/Mossad decided to regime-change Assad through ISIS — and would have, but Russia stepped in. Much of the country is now destroyed, including some historical artifacts.
Distant Shores’ other episode on Syria showed city life more than this one, and how modern much of Syria was. With a secular government, all of the people have freedom of religion. Many are ‘Christian.’
This is where the apostle Paul prayed and studied for three years after becoming a Christian. The most accurate New Testament manuscripts are Syrian. It’s rich in history, and we have no business being there.
I transcribed the following:
– –
@9:45 Paul Shard: “The people are so friendly.”
@18:50 German engineer: [Sheryl Shard: “Do you like it here in Syria?”] “Oh, I like it so much. If you spend 10 years of your life in the country it’s like your home country. [“What is it that you like here? What made you stay here?”] “Especially the loving of the people. The people are so kind here.” [‘We’re finding that too.”]
@22:30 Sheryl Shard: “The Syrian people have been fabulous. Everyone has been so friendly, just one-to-one in the streets. They try to help you in any way they can. It really is the best kept secret. So if you get a chance, I think you should try to get out to Syria. It is really one of the most beautiful countries we’ve visited, and I think you will find the same thing.”

Dr. Nick Begich: How To Break The Zombie Trance
“It’s an old Alaska adage that if you’re stuck on the side of the road, then someone will stop to help. And for a group of tourists on Sunday, that help came from a dogsled team.”
Important point at 1:22:30 — The famous, so-called sightings of Noah’s Ark on the actual mountain of Ararat were false. Mt. Ararat is a volcano that formed years after the flood.

Peter Coyote (narrator): “How do you scale a giant whose lowest branches can be 200 feet off the ground?”
Steve Sillett: “If you’re lucky enough to get up into the crowns of one of these trees, it puts your own insignificant existence in perspective. It makes you realize that there’s something much greater than yourself, so much vaster than you.”
