Timelapses: Why Are They So Cool?

I think if you boil it down to the basics, it's the fact that time, in and of itself, is something that none of us fully understand. It's a difficult concept to deal with, as it pertains to our life-span. Therefore, when we see time alterted, our brains are naturally confused,shocked, and ultimately astounded. It's a break from reality. Here are some cool people that are doing very amazing work with timelapses.
