Horse Chestnut Monolith time lapse

Nothing too exciting small Horse chestnut monolith - tree was in the grounds of a hospital and being brought down to a height of about 5m from 17m as it has been in decline for a while, shed limbs and had a number of cavities. Tree was to be retained for habitat and managed over the coming years instead of just a straight removal. Sun ruined the pics a bit

Wow you work fast! Just out of interest, dont you find rigging easier on everyone, have the groundcrew process the material, instead of the climber?

 

Yeah normally mate that tree was either free falled or cut and held over the fence at the back. Stu had put a capstan on the tree in case I wanted to rig if that's what you are referring to? The drag for the two groundies was about 25m and our chipper is only a forst 6inch so I went out in limbs and cut them so they could drag and chip without having to mess about and sned up which holds things up. We do a lot of rigging day to day because as you say it is easy to deal with on the ground but it all depends on the site and how many guys you have to work with etc but yeah I am a fan of rigging in the right situation. Could have rigged the tree but thought it would be just as quicker cut and chuck

What are the camera/vid settings/timings please?

 

x second shooting interval?

y second frame play time?

 

It was done a go pro hero 3. Set to take a pic every 30 secs. When I loaded it onto the go pro software I set the play back at 20% if that's what you mean?
