Real Sunset
You have seen sunsets everywhere. A quick Google Image Search gives us images of sunsets such as this:
But, as good as they are, these sunsets are not real; they don't exist where we live (unless we live in Hawaii or the Carribean, which most us don't). So I decided to take a fast motion movie of a real sunset--the one that falls in front of my (or perhaps your) house every day.
To view the movie, you need QuickTime player. Get it from Apple's website.

Since the movie was pretty big, it has been deleted.
Click the above link to view the movie. Enjoy! It takes a while to download (its 2 MB in size). Also, if it doesn't work by clicking the link, copy and paste this: "http://www.geocities.com/abidhasan@rogers.com/Pictures/new-2.mov" into the browser address bar.
The process of taking the movie was fairly quick and simple: I took a picture outside from my window after every couple minutes or so for an hour. This was done from about 5:30 to 6:30 PM. In all, there were 73 pictures to start with. Then I went into Corel PhotoPaint and joined all the JPEG images together to make a movie. I did need to improve a couple pictures, doing things such as color correction, curve correction, brightness/intensity improvement and resizing the images.
