Another Day, Another Downpour
As we mentioned in our previous timelapse blog, we are now in the first inter monsoonal period here in Kuala Lumpur. Outside the monsoon seasons it can rain at any time — this is Malaysia, after all, a tropical country through and through.
Today was no exception. A proper thunderstorm rolled in and lasted well over an hour, giving us the perfect opportunity for our fifth attempt at timelapse photography.
Setting Up the Shot
From the balcony of my sister’s studio apartment at Waldorf Tower, we focused on the Kuala Lumpur skyline as dark clouds gathered and lightning flashed in the distance.
We set the DJI Pocket 2 to capture one frame every three seconds, over a duration of two hours — one hour before the storm peaked and one hour after. No filters were used; we relied on the lens au naturel, with only the stock wide angle attachment to widen the field of view.
Our Final Instalment… For Now
This should be our fifth and final timelapse instalment — unless, of course, a brand new and interesting location presents itself to us. With Kuala Lumpur’s unpredictable skies, you never know.
