Nature in Motion

August 15, 2013   Sinead Cullen   No comments

The last few gif series I’ve curated have all been fairly tech-centric so I decided to mellow it a little with some of my favourite shots from the natural world. If the feedback from this is good you can expect more of the same in the near future. 🙂

Cat tongue

Slow-mo of a cat drinking water. I’ve always wondered what actually went on there.

super cell

Supercell Timelapse North of Booker, Texas – June 3rd 2013 A super sell is a type of storm which is characterised by the presence of a mesocyclone, which gives it its ‘churning’ quality.

black sands

Ice fragments on black sand beach, Iceland. The black colour is a result of the extensive volcanic activity in the area. It makes for some beautiful contrast with the ice fragments.

Mushrooms

Awesome timelapse of some Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) cups opening.

Fairly dramatic lightning strike. I wrote piece on Lightneburg patterns recently. Check it out.

Beautifully captured lightning strike.
