I knocked over the camera that I have sitting in a window for making time lapses. 🤦 Had to reposition it from scratch.

In an effort to minimize the difference, I ran this in a loop while adjusting the position:

ssh picam make-shot
scp picam:/tmp/shot.jpg .
convert base-shot.jpg \( shot.jpg -alpha set -channel a -evaluate set 50% \) -layers merge out.jpg
nsxiv out.jpg

It uses ImageMagick to overlay a shot over a known-good base image. I got pretty close:

Won’t be noticable in the final video. (There was a much larger shift in January. 🙄)

I also noticed that I forgot to open the shutter on one day last month, so one of the shots looks like this:
