Timescape Details

Date & Time:
2025-04-27 06:27:21 - 07:16:39 (tz +1000) (nautical twilight to daytime) 🇦🇺

Nbr of Images taken: 110

Interval:
15 sec, in 4 sections
a) nautical twilight, 40 images
b) blue hour / golden hour transition, 22 images
c) golden hour after sunrise 36 images
d) daytime 12 images
The reason for the sections was that a large number of people constantly entered and exited the frame making a continuous timelapse not practical.

Images used:
All images used. Each section was stacked in Affinity Photo to allow full 16 bit depth of processing. Both lighten and average images were generated.

Composition method:
15° slanted slicing, 4 blended slices (from the four sections by merging the lighten and average images), and a single picture with just the two people was inserted to have those 2 people sharp.
See diagram below for a visual representation.
