This surrealistic time lapse video is of a ship traveling outward bound on the Houston Ship Channel .
For a perspective, the ship measures 600 feet long by 106 feet wide. The time lapse video used photos taken at six second intervals during the 3 hour outbound trip on the Houston Ship Channel. The video below is the same trip
during daylight hours.
You can find more about the video, and view some beautiful maritime photos from Lou Vest at

If you liked the sound, pay a visit to
Allman Brothers Band for some great southern fried rock and roll.
Finally, this is a link to a satellite view using Google maps of the
Houston Ship Channel From the link you can zoom in on any areas of interest.
Video editing from the original, compression, and the addition on a sound track was accomplished with
Audacity and
Avidemux both of which are free open source programs.
