The motility of plants is fascinating. The growth patterns of the leaves, for example, are utterly mesmerizing. I have a thicket bean plant that raises and lowers its leaves in response to changes in light levels. The motion is too slow to see normally but with a time lapse video it becomes visible, and you can see that the plant "flaps" its leaves.
Time scaling (slower or faster) is almost like an additional sense, in a way similar to micro- and tele-scopes, eh?
