Green Tunnel: Hiking the Appalachian Trail

Kevin Gallagher through-hiked the Appalachian Trail in six months and made a stop motion film of his journey.
Each day of the six month trek, Kevin took photographs of a single quintessential section of the trail. Twenty four successive steps down the trail were captured each day. At the end of the journey he had over 4,000 slides which were then strung together to offer a condensed view of what an accelerated hike along the Appalachian mountain range would look like.
The finished film, Green Tunnel, is beautiful and inspiring.
