GoPro Time Lapse Driving Along the Amalfi Coast Italy
GoPro Time Lapse Drive Along the Amalfi Coast Italy
The Amalfi coast is so beautiful and seeing it was a driving factor in how we planned this Italian adventure. As we were traveling as a group it became cost effective to hire a car and driver to drive us along the Amalfi Coast instead of taking a bus tour. We spent the whole day driving along the spectacular coast line, admiring the beauty and stopping along the way at Positano, Ravello, and of course Amalfi.
Obviously I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make a GoPro time lapse video, so I hooked up the my GoPro to the GoPro suction cup mount and mounted it on the inside of the car windshield. This was my first real attempt at a GoPro driving time lapse and overall I’m happy with it but it certainly isn’t perfect and next time I’ll try use a polarizing filter to help with the reflection. But even with the reflection I think this GoPro time lapse does give a hint at the beauty of the Amalfi Coast.
The Amalfi Coast is part of the Meditarranian coastline along the southern coast of the Sorrentine Peninsula, in the Italian Province of Salerno in Southern Italy.
GoPro cameras are high definition action cameras use in sport and action and extreme action videography and photography. They are compact and light weight and come with a rugged waterproof housing which makes them perfect for snorkelling and scuba diving and most other water sports.
Time Lapse is the photographic technique of capturing a sequence of images at a slow rate, for example one image every second and viewing them at a faster rate, for example 30 images a second. This has the effect of visually compressing time and can make subtle changes look much more pronounced.
