Nice photo, Bernie. Looks like about 5 minute exposure?

I was looking for animated graphics until I realized
you didn't really mean time-lapse, but long exposure.
Time lapse is when you shoot a frame, allow time to
lapse, shoot another frame, etc. like when you want to
show a plant's entire lifespan in 30 seconds, or
sunsets...
My father used to shoot time-lapse sunsets in Puerto
Rico from the "front yard," Crash Boat Beach. He'd set
his super-8 up on a tripod on the dogleg of the pier,
http :// www .flashearth,com /?lat=18.45742&lon=-67.164343&z=17.5&r=0&src=yh
and click a frame every 5 seconds or so. A half-hour
worth of sunset was compressed into ~15 seconds of
projector time.
I'm surprised that pier is still there 40+ years
later, as it was built for tankers to deliver jet fuel
which ran up a pipeline to Ramey AFB (closed sometime
in the '70s).
Even more surprising is that the fishing boats are
all still lined up on the beach north of the pier.
Around dawn, a huge net is loaded into one of the
boats. Two guys man the boat, one rows out and
around in a huge "U" shape as the other plays the net
out. Twenty or thirty people grab the ends of the net
and pull it in, along with hundreds of pounds of fish.
Cafe con leche, lime sections rubbed in sugar,
fried bananas, collecting bottles for money to blow
on pinball, the juke box (Beatles, of course), and
Sugar Daddies. All that was in one of the bars, where
the tropical air mixed with the aroma of rum, and
nobody thought anything of 6 or 7 year olds frequenting
the place.
It's amazing how a single shot from space can bring
such memories floating back.

Very dramatic.
The shot I snapped of a fire around Globe, AZ as I
was stopped at a traffic light was quite pitiful in
comparison. It looked impressive in person, but CCD
sensitivity on the old Kodak DC215 wasn't anything
like it is in today's cameras.

Oh, yeah. Long exposure would be correct, Steve. I loved the
imagery of you wandering into a bar with a few coins to play the
pinball machines. I could almost see Papa Hemmingway sitting in a dark
corner sipping a rum. Even if it wasn't Cuba.

Ouch, that's a biggie. I guess a blase that size, jumps firebreaks.
