The Space Needle revolving restaurant (20X speed time lapse)

The restaurant in the top of the Space Needle in Seattle rotates. It completes one revolution per hour. I set up my Panasonic LX-5 while having brunch there with my Thai friend Moon on 4/7/2012 and then sped up the video to 2000% in Adobe Premiere CS 5.5. This is the resulting video. By the way, I used a graduated neutral density filter on the camera. Things to watch out for: -- all the cars on Seattle’s streets and on I-5 -- downtown Seattle -- Puget Sound -- Elliot Bay -- a ferry coming into Seattle and another ferry leaving Seattle -- Mount Rainier -- The Olympic Mountains -- a seaplane landing in Lake Union after flying right past the Space Needle -- Seattle Monorail
