Relax and forget about problems with this crystal formation video

You are tired of the day at work or the busy week. The time has come to take three minutes of your time to sit back and relax watching crystals form. The video you see below is from Italian photographer Emanuele Fornasier and, according to the creator, is part of a chemistry project.

In addition to being a photographer, Emanuele is a student of the subject and has spent the last months documenting the formation of crystals. This process takes hours or even days to complete, but it speeds up the videos to see it all happening within seconds.

Emanuele's Vimeo channel has several videos using the time-lapse technique, which increases the frame rate per second to create a scene that shows several hours of a condensed event within minutes. It is worth taking a look.
