Right before the sun sets, the ocean is captured in full motion, hovering 10m, or about 30ft above the
ground. Intervalometry: none in this clip. This is a full motion clip using a ‘UAS’ (unmanned aerial
system) that is approximately ten seconds.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
19 seconds.
Over sand dunes with shrublands on the right. The shadows of the nearby fog, passing on the ocean
breeze, float by quickly as it unexpectedly comes in on return. The dunes don’t show a low amount of
human impact- but a definite impact, nonetheless. The sky consists of the top seventh of the frame
and is a mix of stratus layers under blue sky. The frame pans downward digitally from the sky.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 15 frames.
Snæfellsjökull National Park, slow life and the ocean briefly in the distance Slow life is plant life
that takes a very long time to grow, just one person trampling these plants can damage the ecosystem
for decades.
Time-lapse length (30 fps): 56 seconds and 13 frames.
Over slow life. The UAS flies over a volcanic landscape and creek. Snæfellsjökull, a volcano in the
background has a sheer drop off for a cliff face on one side. A flat layer of cloud, stratus, is on the
top of Snæfellsjökull. The landscape is covered with slow life, and the formations are practically
unique. The only place to safely walk without trampling vegetation is the creek bed and nearby road.
Interval: none, real-time, full motion video.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
33 seconds and 26 frames.
Slow life, newer lava flows, and a mountain in a cloud. A recently active volcano with very little in
the way of sediment for plant growth. The UAS flies over a volcanic landscape. Shallow, frozen puddles
remain on low points from recent rain. Slow life grows in what little soil there is; this ground is so
new in its life.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
31 seconds and 22 frames.
The UAS flies over an ocean inlet over northwest Iceland, and Lenticular clouds cover the sky.
Interval: none, real-time, full motion video.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
23 seconds and 21 frames.
The UAS ascends steadily over a lifeless environment of unique stone formations, with high clouds
motionless in the sky. The ground shows no signs of humans, but the sky has a jet contrail pattern.
Two hills seen are composed only of very large boulders that cracked into pieces after cooling as
magma. The area lives on an active fault zone, and certain hills show where these flows of magma end;
in the last 10 million years, these hills have dropped 11000 ft (2750 m) and were once around the
height of Mt Whitney. No interval was used with this full motion clip.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
11 seconds and 6 frames.
The continuation of another clip. The camera has been reoriented.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
19 seconds and 12 frames.
