Each Day on the Bibbulmun Track

Portraits at the beginning and end of each day turning 54 days into a mesmerizing 4 minutes...

The Animation

Over the 54 days of our hike, we took a portrait photo each morning before setting off on the day's walk and then each afternoon when we'd reached camp -- often capturing the morning's optimism and then the afternoon's pain of the journey on our faces, and the slow change over time.

The Averages

The theory of averaging images is purely mathematical: take all the pixels at each location an average them. But we humans like to get something a little more recognisable, so a little editing is generally employed. Funnily enough, all that editing was already done because my slides were used in the animation... so all I really had to do was to average them :)


What is somewhat interesting is that there is a discernible difference between the morning and the afternoon averages.
