  • View-level clouds on mountain slopes just beyond a void of fog

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    At and below the point of view, flowing clouds between foreground stones and background mountain ridge that dips into the clouds at right. The clouds are blown away by wind, while the flowing stratus layer is seemingly kept out by the silhouetted ridge. A ‘sun dog’ is visible on the higher clouds (not to be confused with the lens flare).
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    13 seconds and 09 frames.

  • Douglas-fir forest around a vast lake of fog at dusk

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    The frame pans digitally to the left, a single second interval and longer exposure is used. The fog layer far below is illuminated only by the ambient light of the dusk sky; it roils very slowly far.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 2 frames.

  • Behind an Atlas cedar, waves of fog silhouette, rolling in sunlight at dusk

    Scene notes:

    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.

  • Moving on rocky cliffside in and on the edge of a fog layer at late daytime

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    The camera is intermittently in fog as it backs away from the edge on a dolly. Around the middle of the playback, the sunlight shines onto the stones and vegetation (left). There is a precipitous drop and a small breche in the foreground. The blue sky, cloudless above, comprises a third of the frame.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    11 seconds and 16 frames.

  • 1 of 3 | On the other side of cedars, a vivid blanket

    Scene notes:

    … of fog shines on forest at sunset. Tumbling and shifting just beyond the tree line is a cloud layer of stratus. The sun is observed going towards the horizon as the layer behind these silhouettes transforms.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    9 seconds and 23 frames.

  • Beyond atlas cypress and other trees, a fog layer on the right flowing in slowly

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    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.

  • 2 of 4 | Very fast fog bank rolling on alpine meadow late day

    Scene notes:

    Mt June at sunset, which is the continuation of another clip.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    9 seconds and 19 frames.

  • Beyond and below the trees are fog blankets, dimly lit by the ambient dusk
