Overview
Attempt number 3: accomplish a few improvements in the timelapse process.
What's working:
- The camera is working and is able to capture images. There was a problem initially, but after trying to re-enable the camera several times, and rebooting several times, the camera started working.
- The script to dump images into a directory works great in concept. Easy to keep everything segregated.
What to do differently for this timelapse:
- 64 gb thumbdrive for space
- camera angles - better control mechanism
- case: improved housing for Pi and for Pi camera (integrated?)
Rainberry (Nope)
Sorry folks. This is for Raspberry Pi Model A+.
Weatherproof case:

- Nice link. Gives a list of parts (gaskets, seals, etc) from McMaster
- Files:
