Hello all!  I'm new to the time lapse group and was wondering what first got you started doing, or interested in time lapse?

I first got started being interested in timelapse was when a group of us got together and started playing  with a camera creating a  low light stage shot and TV head was born.  From there I took my film camera and an external flash with different color shields and started painting the trees and bushes . I was amazed with the results and continuing experimenting. Getting into the shot and out of the shot  flashing  my head flashing my body and giving at ghostly effect was so cool all this kept me excited. Then came the Carnival ride circuit.I found out that I could capture and control the light I saw by the length of the exposure. So I would pack my tripod my cameras and do some recon around and find the ride at the most interesting motions and smallest lights.  Then I would wait till it started getting dark and play time began I still constantly experiment and the passion is still there, and the rest is history ,take care and don't forget enjoy creating your own photoart Paul

Thanks for the input!  Sounds like I need a few more gadgets to play with! 

I discovered time lapse out of sheer boredom one night on a long car ride home.  Played with it so long I made myself car sick : P!  I have a lot of new ideas I'd like to try so we'll see what happens.
