Hi Nik,
Meteors move much faster and they will travel in a straight line. The movement you see with the stars is actually due to the rotation of the earth. Hence they move in an arc. Each frame in the video is a long 20 second exposure. So a 10 second video will take 2-3 hours of real time to capture on camera. In addition, I have the camera mounted on a motorized dolly. It moves very slowly but over the course of shooting 300 frames, it will move about 30 inches. Cheers,
Henry

I have a question. All of the timelapse videos, how often do you take a picture. Cause in the videos the meteors(Fleeting light video) are a straight line. If you take a picture every second then the meteors would turn out as stars. Also in some videos you tend to zoom out. Do you move the camera every picture or is it a program? By the way I love your videos.
