Well, setting, as the video is actually playing in reverse (look at the smoke stack/chimney at the end). :-P

Dang, I'm not seeing that smokestack at all...?

I guess there's a chimney behind a tree, but it doesn't look like it's in reverse. (It starts at around 0:25) Nice video!

Cool Greg. I love time lapse as it lets us see our world on a different time scale and there can be something incredibly humbling about that. I did a blog post where I showed the top ten natural history based time lapse videos I could find online. I didn't see this one but I did use another milky way shot from the Texas Star Party. You can see them all here. One of my favorites is the time lapse of wildfires in California.
