I recently moved to a new office building and unfortunately I had a lacked a few years at the company to get a window office.

That was a very interesting video; with the way the plants were moving it almost seemed like they were breathing!
Laura, you’re right, I guess they were! Nice video. Its amazing how big they got.
I absolutely love time lapse videos. Great job!
did you take this video using that fancy time lapse camera? What are the specifications of the video shot: pictures shot every hour during the day only, for about how many weeks? Neat stuff!
