Time-lapse Wellington filmed using Segway PT

Wellington Segway Personal Transporter (PT) owner Stephen Patience vibrantly captures the capital city in a four-minute time-lapse video. The article (with video) appears today in Stuff, which reports: More than 17,000 images were recorded over a six-month period to showcase the best Wellington has to offer. The result is 30 scenes captured using slider rails, a wind-up kitchen timer, a camera attached to a Segway and walking lapse shots.
