Muybridge galloping horse


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 (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:
 * Nominate and support. - Waugsberg 21:37, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 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)
