This short film entitled Finding Oregon is a stunning example of time lapse videography. It highlights both the day and night skies at several viewpoints around the state. The cinematography of this 4 minute video is breathtaking, from the natural scenery to the eerie time lapse sequences that give the illusion of stars shooting through the night sky. Watch, and be amazed.
