High above the clouds on the ancient extinct volcano, where clouds change in the late
afternoon. SKU/clip number: PRC055
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds.
Sectioned by four ridges of hills, forests, fog flows into the empty areas. There is a definite
liquid-like quality to the fog’s movement. Visibility is very clear, and the distant coast
range is visible. Beyond that, the ocean, from where this fog came.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 2 frames.
The south flank of the top of Spencer Butte, with no sky shown, only fog lapping against the
right-side of the forest just below, near sundown. A trail or two leads down to a few Atlas
Cedars before the tree line, and a rocky foreground is above a grassy hillside slope.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
14 seconds and 6 frames.
Sandwiched between layers of clouds, where just below, the sun shines on stratus fog vividly at
sunset, creating these pink wave crests of the fog, steadily moving and shifting on a wind. Far
beyond, an Altostratus layer filters out a little light, but closer above, the stratus layer
has its lower surface is made golden by the sun’s glow. From reddish to pink, the sky
majestically plays into dusk.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
13 seconds and 2 frames.
The lone tree stands an apparent vigil over the wave of fog that is roiling in the dusk light
far below on the countless other trees.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
13 seconds and 2 frames.
An evening on windy Mt Diablo, a foreground of vegetation precedes the several hills in small
layers of fog. The wind whips the fog over the hillsides below, as the humid air glows brightly
near the sun in the upper-third of the frame. Only in the distance of the Bay area are there
more fog layers. The sky is otherwise cloudless, as the close fog passes nearby intermittently,
brightening the whole scene for brief moments.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
21 seconds and 2 frames.
Many clips of Precipice are like one another, and some share the same scene at different times.
All Precipice clips take place on a steep drop-off, even if that drop is out of frame. They all
have in common a cloud or fog layer either at below the point of view’s elevation and are at or
near sunset.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds and 19 frames.
Just around sunset when the light is most orange, the lone atlas cedar is midway to the fog,
which seems to be rising just behind these trees. There is a wide vista of bright fog
stretching miles out, and the hill that spans the valley below creates a shadow on the fog
further away, miles out. It’s quite windy, apparent from the speed of the water vapor just
beyond.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
23 seconds and 8 frames.
