Aloe timelapse

Today I made another timelapse, this time of my Aloe's flower stalks. The pics were taken at around 5 minute intervals for like 1.5 hours. It's not the best quality, but it's ok, and it's only around 2 seconds long.

Hey! That's cool! They are dancing. I can't remember, do you your camera automatically taking the pictures at the intervals or did you manually take all the pictures?

xvart.
 
I had to take the pics by hand. :-(

Yeah they do look like they're dancing. They've always moved like this, and I noticed that whenever I leave the room then come back in, they're in a different position. So, I decided to track the movements with timelapse. I could have gone longer, but decided not to. What seemed to have happened after I stopped taking pictures is that they straightened up, bent over again, and moved in the opposite direction.
