Tom Tayback and the Daddy O’s play a monthly show at the Sound bites Grill in Sedona, Arizona. When you see the show it is a seamless presentation of music and stories from the 50’s and 60’s called the Graffiti Gold Show. What you don’t see is the proverbial feet of the duck paddling underwater like crazy to make it work.

That’s why I like time lapse photography.

Here I take an hour and a half and show it to you in about one minute. I used the Lumix GH3. It has a built in intervalometer that allows you to set all your specific times, number of exposures and time between images captured. It even has a readout that tell you how long a time period will be covered with the settings saving some time with the calculator. On my previous camera systems I had to buy accessory equipment in order to accomplish time lapse images.

This is about 1400 images photographed every 3 seconds. The playback is at 30 frames per second…

Getting the Graffiti Gold Show show set up is quite a job…
