Title says it all. Everyone's probably had them. Post cool ideas you've had that you can't execute.


Personally, I think it would be cool to set up a timelapse in someone's personal (home) gym for a period of a few years. Take pictures every few seconds for 24hrs a day. It would be crazy to see how a person's fitness progressed over that time.

Doing a time lapse of a decaying urban environment. This would have to be done over the period of several years though, and the weather would have to be identical in each frame or it would not flow properly.

A Timelapse of a Pregnancy, that may be practical, not sure how to do it though, and timelapse of the earths rotation, leaving a camera on a satillite that never moves and have it take pictures of the earth rotating below it

Take a rig like this and scale it WAY up.

Have an oval surrounding a basketball/football/soccer/rugby field with two or thee arches over the field/court

or on either side of a halfpipe

or one on each side of say X-games big air jump so it is approximate to the riders flight path.

or a few hoops that could be jumped through
