Breathtaking Time-Lapse Video: The Mountain [Video]

Check out this amazingly beautiful time-lapse video made out the the pictures Norwegian photograph Terje Sorgjerd took while he was on top of of mount Teide in Spain. If you’re about to go to bed, be sure to close all the lights, put the video in full screen mode, and then sit back to enjoy the show.

This was filmed between 4th and 11th April 2011. I had the pleasure of visiting El Teide.
Spain´s highest mountain @(3715m) is one of the best places in the world to photograph the stars and is also the location of Teide Observatories, considered to be one of the world´s best observatories.

The goal was to capture the beautiful Milky Way galaxy along with one of the most amazing mountains I know El Teide. I have to say this was one of the most exhausting trips I have done. There was a lot of hiking at high altitudes and probably less than 10 hours of sleep in total for the whole week. Having been here 10-11 times before I had a long list of must-see locations I wanted to capture for this movie, but I am still not 100% used to carrying around so much gear required for time-lapse movies.
