Timelaps Near Infrared

I made a couple of hacks to my camera so now it can shoot in the near infra-red and do time-laps photography. This was mostly shot at South Queensferry on a VERY windy afternoon. This spot, using the pier wall as a wind break, was about the only place I could find where my tripod wouldn't be blown over! I'm using my 2 Sony DSC-V3 cameras to make this video. Usually I have them configured to take 3D photographs but in this case I've got one taking normal photographs and the other simultaneously shooting in the near infrared. The timelaps controll was achieved using an 'arduino' micro controller programmed to acivate the camera shutters once every 3 seconds. I think the pictures of South Queensferry are running at around 12 FPS whilst the shots at the end of dusk over Glasgow are 24 FPS so you can work out how long I stood there in the freezing wind yourself. Oh this is also my first HD video even though I still don't have an HD camera :)
