  • Lone Atlas cedar on a green pasture, under pleasant and lightweight clouds slowly moving

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    This Atlas tree was likely kept alive on this winery’s meadows for its beauty. A single branch has been felled by recent wind. The low clouds in the sky are scattered gently throughout the sky.

    Scene notes:

    Rock formations under light midday clouds flowing overhead. Sandstone spires stand tall into the sky looking down from afar on yellow flowering Arrowleaf Balsomroot plants all around the foreground. The meadow comprises half the frame, and a hill rises green to change into the red ground and shrubs into formations of pure stone.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 2 frames.

  • Sandstone monoliths under fast clouds which cast moving shade

    Scene notes:

    Panning to the right over a red rock canyon, with low clouds of low-density float and meandering overhead, shadows quickly passing through the canyon floor and the large white boulder in the foreground (near clip end).
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 6 frames.

  • Clouds with Sierra Nevada range appearing from haze on meadows in the day

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Shadows play across the desert and mountain landscape as the camera pans rightwards. Shadows from these lower clouds that have moved overhead shift the light on the land. High clouds move onward while the stratus layer hugging the mountainous peaks transform in time and the higher wind. The higher north faces of these cliffsides are steeped in snow.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 8 frames.

  • Over mountains with snow, clouds above float in different roiling shapes

    Scene notes:

    Deep flutings, cirques carve deeply into these mountains, and become ideal places for packed snow and ice. Slowly, low clouds creep above and on (center-left) the cornices and ridges of the mountains.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    42 seconds and 21 frames.

    Scene notes:

    The mid-level clouds above Grand Tetons in the sunlight at dusk. The hill in between mountains and foreground is shadowed as the sun sets. The very sharp peaks of the range become silhouetted. A three second interval is used.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 28 frames.

  • Panning away from red rock monoliths

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    … and medium-density clouds transforming above. Red stones, extremely unusual in shape outside of the American West, appear as monoliths while the camera pans away to the lower, fluffy clouds in the sky. There is no foreground or horizon shown in this frame.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 2 frames.
