"TIME LAPSE"


Explanation:
THIS PROCEDURE OF SHOOTING A SINGLE FRAME AT A TIME WITH A CAMERA GIVES THE EFFECT OF A (FOR EXAMPLE) SEED GROWING INTO A FLOWER IN 30 SECONDS, OR A BUILDING BEING DEMOLISHED IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, ALSO.

"TIME LAPSE" INDICATES THE COMPRESSION OF TIME THAT HAS OCCURRED WHEN PHOTOGRAPHING THESE EVENTS.
