Muybridge galloping horse

Annie G. galloping - a set of Eadweard Muybridge's photos in motion. New Version: original size: 300px)

Old version (184px=original size)

Earlier this year, I made an older version of this animation (184x135px). The picture is used in Horse gait and High speed photography. It is Commons featured picture.

It was also nominated here (Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Muybridgehorse). There were opinions who wanted it in a better quality. In the meantime I could get better copies, so I made a new and larger version (300x200px) of the animation.

Muybridge's photos where taken between 1878 and 1887. The animation is made of 15 frames (nr. 2-16). Muybridge wrote that the exposure time he used for horses at full speed was between one six-hundredth and one eight-hundredth of a second each. The interval of time between successive exposures was 31 thousands of a second. As one sequence of 15 pictures takes about 1.5 seconds, the animation shows about 1/3 of normal speed.

Comments:

• Much better. I haven't gotten around to doing any of the others yet (planning to do "Daisy with rider"). If you wish to submit this for FP, I'll support it (but not as a "replacement" for the cartoon... ;-) --Janke | Talk 06:26, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
