Is it worth it?

This question is mainly to everyone who is a decade or longer into their project but anyone can answer.

So in around 3 weeks I'll reach the 2 year mark of my project. And over the past year or so specifically I've been questioning whether it's actually worth it to do it for a decade.

This isn't a storage issue as I have that sorted, just want to know if I'm just wasting my time doing this.

Is it normal to feel dread

So I was watching back my timelapse and i almost cried watching the years go by
Is this normal?
Will it go away?
I want to continue this until I turn 20 but honestly now I'm starting to rethink it

Is it possible to export a single photo?

Hi folks. I have been using the app on iOS for a little bit and am loving it so far. Yesterday's photo was amazing. But unfortunately I'm not saving every selfie to my camera roll. Is it possible to export a single photo in its original resolution after the fact? It's a bit unclear what you get with the subscription. A full back-up of everything is an option? Can I also just "back-up" a single photo?

[Tutorial] How to automatically stabilize your photos using AgeLapse

If you're starting a new selfie-a-day project I made a new app 'PhotoJourney' for this 📲

Some key features:

  • Add cross-fade transitions between photos for a kind of 'warp' effect
  • Import existing selfies
  • Ghost mode to align face to previous photo during capture
  • Face guidelines in the camera too
  • Easily add date stamps / time stamp to the time-lapse video (can do date, month, year, lots of different formats and fonts to use)
  • Instant in-app time-lapse video creation
  • Export to GIF or video (up to 4k resolution)

It's a brand new app, so be kind 😅 but would love some feedback! 🙏

Here's a link to get 3 months of the Pro version for free just for the Reddit crew: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6499454966&code=REDDITKARMA

Consistency

How do I take a photo of myself every day consistenty? For the whole month of june my phone stopped working so i didnt take any pictures. Occasionally I still miss a day or 2, how can i avoid that? Also my face is not the same distance from the camera in every photo so how can i align it properly?

Quick test using Picasa 3

Upsides of Picasa: Self aligns, simple to make timelapse, extra storage, cool effect on the edge of the pics

Downsides: occasionally doesn't use a picture or two because it doesn't feel like it (it recognized the face but decided not to use the image) (it literally threw out all of Dec 2023), png and jpeg only, difficult to rearrange images if out of order

All in all, it works but if you want to have all the images (perfectly aligned at that) maybe use something like Afflign (I think that's how it's spelt)

Frame rate

So I recently hit 5 months of photos and I wanted to know I anyone could recommend a good frame rate for a one year video.

Slightly unrelated note: If anyone needs help manually stabilizing their project, I'm more than happy to help.

Is there a website to stabilize my photos

I've been taking a photo everyday for almost a month now and I'd like to know if the is a website/soft ware for windows to stabilize my photos

Edit: I found a way to manually do it, thanks for the suggestions though.

Best way of stabilising 12 years worth?

I gave up manually aligning photos years ago because it took too long. What’s an easy way to automate 4385 photos?
