Around the World in 6,237 Photos and in 343 Days

When I was young, I saw a movie 'Around the world in 80 days.' But if you go about visiting 17 countries in 6,237 photos?

Around the world: In 80 days (L) - In 6,237 Pictures (R)

Kien Lam from San Francisco, has captured over 6,000 photos taken from his Panasonic Lumix GF-1 camera of the 17 countries he visited and traveled in 343 days. When he returned, he joined together these thousands of beautiful photos edited in Adobe Lightroom, Adobe After Effects and Final Cut Pro.

“To capture the spirit of the trip, I took time-lapse photographs at practically every city I traveled to,”  Kien Lam  told toMashable in an email. “Each two-second scene is comprised of about 40 to 60 photographs.”

Watch the video below and you will be over-awed by the magic Kien has created to compress a travel of 343 days of 17 countries in a 290 seconds long time-lapse video:
