Tufas are the unique stone structures shown at left in the moonlight, which also make visible the
light and fluffy low-level clouds cast night shadows over the distant desert landscape, with stars
present.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
14 seconds and 27 frames.
This clip is illustrative of the under lighting that happens after the sun has set. From the altitude
of the clouds, the light is still briefly shining on them, and the clouds are turned pink and red
with oranges in between, and different levels of clouds are shown to move in differing directions
according to the winds at those altitudes.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
4 seconds and 21 frames.
Airplanes crisscross the night sky over the monoliths in the desert. Distant clouds on the horizon
with minimal light pollution. The amount of coma is medium, and the exposure length is long enough to
capture several flashes from aircraft lights.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 17 frames.
From the viewpoint on the hill, the valley and lake is seen below. While nine-tenths of the frame is
composed of the sky’s clouds and glowing on distant mountains. Two layers of clouds are present, a
low-level and medium-level. On the medium level, the glow of light supplements the direct
under-lighting on it. Pinks, oranges, and reds play out on the sky as the sun peaks out one last time
for the day in 2005. The lower-level clouds moves towards the camera.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 3 frames.
Precipitation and high wind; this Nimbus is not a violent one, but is dense and dark where it has its
rain, like usual for a storm cloud. Rain is diffusing the glowing light below it, and the underside
of the storm is lit from the ambient glow.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds and 13 frames.

The continuation of another clip: the camera position, orientation, and settings have been adjusted
as the storm approaches.
