Here's a little time lapse sequence I put together of my orchid bloom. 3500+ photos spanning 19 days and nights in under 6 minutes.
Canon 20D, 50mm, f/11. Automatic exposure, manual aperture, manual focus.
This was my second attempt at time lapse photography and I ended up having to reposition the camera and plant a few times.

Clear skies,

Sweet the coming on
Of grateful evening mild; then silent night
With this her solemn bird and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heaven, her starry train.

Michael, that was great!
One thing I would do to improve it would be to remove the dark shots & the blockouts, just so that you don't lose track of the sequence...
Keep'em coming!
