La Palma is located in the Canary Islands, not far off the coast of Northern Africa. It is a place that offers peace and tranquility for those who come to visit, deftly mixing island life with serene landscapes and beautiful skies. Those skies are the subject of this video, which takes us to La Palma to give a sense of what it is like there through timelapse photography. During the day, you'll see rolling clouds sweeping across the countryside, and at night you'll catch a glimpse of the boundless universe overhead. It is nothing short of breathtaking.

Video: This Timelapse Video of the Grand Canyon is the Best Thing You'll See All Day
When it comes to sharing videos here on The Adventure Blog, I'm prone to hyperbole when writing the descriptions. But when it comes to this fantastic clip of the Grand Canyon, there simply aren't enough superlatives to do it justice. To understand what I'm talking about, you simply just have to watch it. At a little over 2.5 minutes in length, it isn't much of a commitment, and you'll be oh-so glad you did.
Thanks George for reminding me of this!

Video: Where Have All the Stars Gone? - How Light Pollution Affects the Night Sky
One of the great joys of travel for me is visiting places where it is so dark that you can see the night's sky completely unobstructed. Watching the billions of stars overhead is an incredibly humbling experience. But, not everyone gets to feel that thanks to light pollution, which can block the heavens, even on the darkest of nights. In this video, we see just how much of an impact the urban lights can have as we walk through the various levels of light pollution and how they affect our enjoyment of the stars overhead. These timelapse images will put everything into perspective and help you appreciate our dark zones even more.

Galicia is an independent region on the northwest coast of Spain that is known for its dramatic landscapes, sweeping vistas, and breathtaking slopes. Outsiders aren't a common site in this part of the world, but those who do make the trip are treated to some amazing settings, many of which remain mostly untouched by man. In this video, we travel into this land of the lost to witness its beauty for ourselves. I think that you'll agree that the results are nothing short of spectacular.

This is a beautiful and enchanting part of the world, and a place that should be on every traveler's bucket list. I hope you enjoy.

Video: The Polar Night in Timelapse
Above the Arctic Circle each year, the sun sets in November and doesn't return for nearly two months. That absence of light creates a long polar night that brings shadows and darkness to the landscapes. In this video, you get a chance to experience what that is like with some stunning timelapse images that will leave a lasting impression. Stark and beautiful, this is a place where the conditions are challenging, but well worth it for those who love the outdoors.
