A brave little kidney bean becomes a plant
August 4, 2018I found this video on the kottke.org blog. It is a time-lapse photo of a kidney bean sprouting into a plant, shot at the rate of one shot every 9 minutes 36 seconds and played at the rate of 30 frames per second.
The little bean seems strangely gallant to me. It makes me feel proud to be a carbon-based life form.

Creatures that live in slow motion
April 11, 2014Corals, sponges and other marine life are mobile creatures. They build coral reefs and are important to the earth’s biosphere. But they live at a different time scale than human beings, so we can see their movement only with the help of time lapse photography.
