Tagaytay Sunrise Time-lapse Shoot Fail :-)

From foggy to insanely foggy @ Tagaytay from Mike Peñaranda on Vimeo.

I was up all night to shoot time-lapse videos, we were in a hotel. I had to utilize the balcony over looking the Taal lake. I got about 5 time-lapse reels. I was really hoping for a nice sunrise time-lapse (which I'm not really sure as of late how to execute such) but then the fog just molested the high lands as you can see in this video. Anyway, watch out for my compilation from this trip. Soon, hopefully.


Here are a few shots I took with my iPhone earlier today. That last photo, ah, I don't know really why I did that but with all the fog, I just a feeling that I had too. So if you don't think it's necessary, you can laugh at me now. Haha. But I really think it's necessary. Anyway.. . .

Here, I really thought I had something. My camera was shooting during this time, this was taken using my iPhone, again. It somewhat cleared for awhile in the middle but then a few mins a big chunk of fog just covered it all up again. So I just to call it a day. (Or should I say night? Lol.) So I decided I'd try out this new App I downloaded for my iPhone which shoots, renders and allows you to share a time-lapse video. (It's the video you just watch above - that's if you did. Curious? Watch it.)

Anyway, that's all I guess. Here are a few more photos of myself - I hope you don't mind. Haha! Me with my eye-bags 'n oily-faced self.

Sunrise was a bummer with all that fog, but still - I had a great time. Reason why despite a failure as mentioned on the title of this post, it's followed by a smiley. Showing you here on the photo above my background of what's supposed to be a great view facing the east-side, over the Tall lake. But of course, as I said - F*! Sorry, I meant, fog killed it.

Time-lapse with my iPhone 4 - oh yeah! A first. (It's the video above.) :-)
