Under very light clouds, creeping up its slopes during fair-weather. Its peak becoming more obscured
deep in the clouds, Mt Rainier is the subject of the frame, along with a Cumulus cloud that
persistently grows. The shade from this cloud casts shadows on the many steep slopes below.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):

Playback length at 30 fps: 17 seconds, 16 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):
8 seconds and 13 frames.
… is seen in deep dark colors of stars 1 of 2. Above a cloud which is caught on the mountain it
shrouds this night, the stars whirl. The low cloud has motion blur due to the exposure length. The
clouds roll leftward at high speed, only the slightest outline is illuminated by moonlight. The Milky
Way is slightly visible. There are at least four airplanes that speed through the night.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 24 frames.
The UAS ascends, and a nearby fog layer passes by. Mt Shasta is seen in the morning light stretching
out, it’s two peaks fully draped in a fresh winter snow. The morning sky is a bright blue color
against the peaks. There are a few distant high clouds. The unique perspective of the mountain is
simply not available from the ground.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
11 seconds and 14 frames.
A 50mm lens at open aperture (f1.4). Far above a mountain peak, a mid-level cloud layer gradually
works its way into the frame, silhouetted in the dark night sky. Coma (comatic aberration) is present
at moderate levels.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 13 frames.
… from heavier low clouds travel across on an electric green, grass meadow.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):

A small portion of the frame has the mountains silhouetted on the Northern Lights. The other roughly
95 percent of the frame comprises stars. The Aurora flash stochastically as the long exposures span
the length of time that the light intensifies and dims.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 21 frames.
