This breathtaking time-lapse video of Boston might be the best one yet

There have been a lot of Boston time-lapse videos in the last couple years, but “A City Upon A Hill,” a collaborative project from two veteran Boston time-lapse videographers, is the best one we’ve seen.

Sean Collins brought us a stunning time-lapse video in the summer of 2013 with “This is Boston”

Then Julian Tryba upped the ante with his innovative layer-lapse technique, which relied on multiple simultaneous time-lapse layers to create the dizzying light show shown here.

With the two working together, the results are as amazing as you’d expect. Here are some of the most evocative images from the video.
