Alas, Sara died in April of 2012. I miss her greatly and I remember her fondly when I watch the video. She new when it was time to take my pictures and always ran outside to pose. I'm glad I kept her in the pictures and didn't shoo her away.
Can you comprehend that someone spent 5 years just making this 1 minute video you just watched? Sometimes I feel kinda sad it takes people giant chunks of a lifetime to work on something that will usually be greatly overlooked. I know there's not much more to do with it but like the video, but there are so many, countless of lives dedicated to making their videos, or as in my case - songs, to little or no appreciation. Just made me think out loud. Barely anyone will get it but there's no harm in posting the thought anyway. Spend a moment to appreciate some of the people who bring you this content, UA-cam isn't TV, many of those "non-viral" people don't get paid and don't get anything out of entertaining you, so at least like their videos and leave a nice comment.
Blight GT I only took pictures once a week, so that wasn't so hard. And you are right, editing the pictures does take the longest. I'm hoping that sometime before I'm finished someone creates a program to do that automatically.
***** I'm baffled how you thought that was negative. I actually completely agree with him, along with 26 other people. Think about it, this took 5 years. I don't hate this video in any way, but making this was probably a waste of time; considering it did not receive much credit to what it was worth. Why would you call himself a "lame musician"? Don't let ignorance get the ahead of you; that's rude. He didn't try to offend anyone.
Sara was the main dog you see in the videos. We did get a black dog for a while. Sara died earlier this year. I married and now have two more dogs that will appear in future videos.
"photographic obsession".... I like that. That's an incredibly accurate description. The dog, Sara, always seems to know when I am taking my pictures and runs out to lay on the lawn. For a while, that bothered me, then I thought, she is just as much a part of change as the tree growing. So, I stopped chasing her away. Thanks for looking, thanks for commenting. LL
I do not consider myself an arborist as much as I consider myself a historian. I try to capture the steady flow of events that effected my life. When my in-laws lived in the house pictured, they had a passion for the yard. In later pictures after my divorce, not in the video, the yard doesn't look so good. The tree still grows, but so does the grass. This video captures the struggle my in-laws had keeping the lawn healthy when we had a dog that loved to lay in the same place all the time.
I just don’t get why people disliked the video. The title matches the video so what were you expecting? Flying unicorns? The dog exploding? What did you want. This video to 5 YEARS.
I don't know how I came across this video, but I'm glad I did.. at the same time though, I cried.. because what seemed like such a simple video really turned out to be something beautiful. Seeing the tree change was neat, but the dog really got me because you watch the time and think how short they are here with us. Then I read the comments and really teared up to see the dog had passed 9 years ago and then see the video is 12 years old 😭 you blink and time passes you by.. God bless.
I have about 20 different locations around the yard, (and one inside the house) that I set my camera on. I try to take at least one picture a week, more during springtime and fall, at the 12:00 noon in non-daylight savings days, and 1:00pm on DSDs. That way I hope to catch the equinox shadows. I use the layering technique in Photoshop to line up the photos and use an old Olympus Movie making program to create the video.
Enjoyed your video very much, through several viewings. Unlike much of the crap you get on UA-cam these days, this is a truly honest video - accurate title, no annoying background "music" and no AI. Sara is a natural bonus!!
I am so glad you made this video. Smooth time lapses of plant growth are fairly hard to come by, not to mention time lapses that take place over multiple years!
Very cool how every time the tree grows back it comes back stronger than the last time. Never really knew that’s how trees grew or how the seasons effected them.
Interesting so each time the tree comes back from being dormant the internal structure changes and the new canopy raises as well as the trunk seems to get a growth spurt
in a way this made me get excited. I got this plant who grew up to 3 meters from almost seedling state only to stop in autumn. I can only imagine how much more it will grow once spring hits again
There’s these people who bought some bushes for a privacy fence but they bought these tiny tiny bushes like 6” bushes. Offers them NO privacy whatsoever. Idk if they’re waiting 10 years for their plants to grow or what🙄
No clue what type of tree it is. I think it could be a maple. We trimmed the branches to shape the tree, and make it easier to mow the lawn, that's why the lower branches disappeared.
@@mayankkumar4161 I have a mango tree, and if they aren't in the right climate, they won't fruit, maybe that's why this one has no fruit. It's hard to see because the video is blurry, but the leaves look like mango leaves too. But I said I was %50 sure in the first place.
The tree is either a maple tree or a sycamore. Mangoes don't have leaves like that, nor is the structure of the tree like that either, they are more gangly.
So far, I have about 10 years of photos accumulated to make into movies. It's a long process to allign the pictures and make a movie, so it may be a while before I can start posting my other pictures. I know there has to be better ways to allign photos other than Photoshop, and if anyone could tell me, I would appreciate it.
That was so beautiful to watch. I never paid attention to it until I saw it in this timelapse but to watch a tree completely shed all its leaves and then grow more the next summer is absolutely fascinating! Teaches you a lot about your own life. Never give up people. And always keep reinventing! ❤️
I wanted to see a tree growth over the years and I searched the entire internet, cannot believe this is the only one I found in year 2021. Just want to say thank you for making this!
I like it. I just planted two Pins out front and a Shumard out back. This vid shows me what to expect in the fraction a trees life I will actually be alive to witness. Lapeere, thank you.
Beautiful. I even caught a glimpse of a rainbow in there. I like simple videos like this. Sometimes it's those little things in life that make you appreciate the beauty of the earth we live on.
Wow! This is amazing! Such commitment! I'm a gardener and often contemplate the way that trees much grow and change over the years and try to imagine how that might look. This is actually really, really helpful for me! Thank you!!!
For this picture I place my Olympus 3030 camera on a specific location on my air conditioner. So far, I've done this for over 12 years and have gone through 3 cameras. Fortunately they are cheap to replace. Larry
@camptrav I have no clue what kind of tree it is. My father-in-law planted it in 2001 and I decided to document it's growth. Now, almost 10 years later, I'm sorry I didn't point the camera up higher.
totally awesome! I thought about doing this a week ago and hoped someone had already done it. nice work! And being a Canadian it is so weird to see the leaves all fall off in autumn but then no snow showing up ever lol
The dog(s) are a continuing saga in life around here. Sara, the brown dog is the only consistent element in the video. Lilly, the black dog, came to us after my sister-in-law died. Lilly died earlier this year due to cancer. Pretty quick, after I get remarried, I will be getting 2 more dogs. So, updated videos will have more canine to help me mark the timeframe of the videos.
I moved into a rented house that had a deciduous tree in the middle of the front yard. At Christmas, when all the leaves fell off, it had a perfect Christmas tree shape. When the decorations were marked down after Christmas, I bought a bunch of lights and ornaments to use the following Christmas. By then, that tree was twice its height. I couldn’t afford to buy all the decorations I would need. When I moved out of that house after six years, it looked like a mature tree, not a little sapling. I have never seen a tree grow so fast. I enjoyed seeing the dogs. One of my beloved dogs died in December. I needed to go through my photos this week and there he was. I called him my shadow, because wherever I was in the house, he’d be there too. The photos proved it. I adopted a little female rescue yesterday. She is sleeping on my feet, as she did last night. She is settling in nicely for a poor little creature who has been through so much. She had lost a third of her body weight in less than two weeks. She likes my cooking!
This is tight. I was reading Matt 13:31-32 about a mustard seed and was thinking about a time lapse of a tree growing. How beneficial. Thank u for uploading
This video is so cool. I’m so sorry about Sara. I have 3 pups and I’ve lost one before. I’m so sorry about Sara because it’s hard to live like that. ❤️❤️❤️

I think he did this for fun. Taking a picture once a day isn't that hard, but I think the editing would be the trickiest.

So much is changing throughout time, the passing of time is very well documented. And a lovely tree you got in just a couple of summers!
