Time lapse photography is a technique that allows to quickly and visually convey processes that take a long time in real life. For example time lapse photography can shrink to 10 seconds the complete process of building a new bridge. Although usually used in videos time lapse can also be used in still digital photography.

The idea behind time lapse is simple. You want to capture a change that usually takes a long time in real life. In order to accomplish that you take photos either every fixed period of time or every time there is some change in the real life process. For example you can take a photo once a week to document the building of a new bridge, or you can take a photo every time a new floor is built in a new skyscraper. When viewing these photos in sequence the feeling of the actual real life process and its magnitude is very effectively conveyed.

Time lapse photography is mostly known for such scenarios as the process of building bridges and buildings or the process of flowers growing. There are however other usages to time lapse photography that are more relevant to the amateur home photographer. Here are some examples:

Professional photographers sometimes use special equipment that can automatically take photos every certain period of time. For most amateur usages manually taking the photos is good enough. Some things to care about when taking time lapse photos: try to take photos in the same time of the day and with the same lighting – this will intensify the effect as the difference between the photos will be mostly the changes that you care about and not other external factors like lighting that can draw unwanted attention.

One of the impressive things that became apparent after I had finished the book was that digital photography work does not require you to buy expensive digital photography equipment, create any websites, ship anything, get involved with adult or pornographic content, or to have any special computer skills. It also does not require any extensive customer support.

Moore drives home the fact that digital photography work is growing faster than the supply of available photographers.

Photographers are needed worldwide ? and thanks to the abilities of the Internet, anyone who will take the time to read and follow the instructions in this book has a legitimate chance of earning a very good part-time income or an excellent full-time income as a digital photographer selling photos online.

Because all work is submitted online, this is work one can do from anywhere in the world where there is an internet connection. The eBook tells you exactly how and where to upload the pictures you take onto the internet. Waiting for someone to pay for your photos is the hardest part and if there is a fault with the system, it would be that one would get impatient and stop taking and uploading photos thereby limiting one’s income potential.

This is a comprehensive guide that leaves nothing out of the business equation left unexplained. It describes and gives references to the types of images that are most in demand and where and how to upload your photos for residual monthly income. All in all, this is a helpful and practical how to guide for any erstwhile digital photographer desiring to do digital photography work online.
