I use the interval timer in my digital camera to speed up the action in time lapse movies like this one:
I shot this time lapse movie from 11:54 AM to 1:34 PM on Tuesday, August 14, 2007. The action is speeded up 125x.

On Thursday, June 30, the Amtrak Coast Starlight was pulling two vintage rail cars, the Southern Pacific Overland Trail and the Pennsylvania Colonial Crafts.
Way off topic. Goleta is right next to Santa Barbara, where they host the annual Summer Solstice parade.
More natural history:
On Thursday, October 21, I shot a series of panoramas along the length of East Camino Cielo on the crest of the Santa Ynez Mountains above Goleta and Santa Barbara. Camino Cielo features many sweeping vistas of the Santa Barbara Channel and the San Rafael Wilderness.

Photographic tour of Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah in early September 2003.
From
1952 to 1956, the Fighter Conveyer (FICON)
program investigated the potential of carrying various models of
the Republic F-84 in the bomb bay of a Peacemaker to perform
reconnaissance missions into areas that were too heavily defended
for the RB-36 to penetrate.
Hobbycraft has released a
1/144-scale model of the FICON
composite aircraft system, which was composed of a Convair
GRB-36D flying aircraft carrier conversion with a Republic RF-84K
Thunderflash parasite reconaissance plane. Since my article about
Project FICON is being published in the Journal of the American
Aviation Historical Society, I chose to build and review the kit.
I traveled to the Antelope Valley twice in April to photograph the wildflower bloom.
A
number of airlines use novelty
paint schemes on their airplanes to attract extra attention.
On the longest day of 2002, I drove up the Swansea-Cerro Gordo Road to the Burgess Mine at the crest of the Inyo Mountains just before sunset. I continued across the crest of the Inyo Mountains to Cerro Gordo, arriving as the full moon rose.
On August 20, 2000, I chased the Union Pacific Challenger No.
3985 from Pomona to Yermo, California.
Santa Fe steam
locomotive 3751 made an
unassisted run from Union Station to San Bernardino to be displayed at the
rededication of the depot.
I have
photographed a number of other steam
locomotives over the years.
