    Scene notes:

    Clouds float by overhead and on mountains. The continuation of another clip. The camera’s orientation and position has been adjusted. A two second interval is used.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):

  • Very slow light shaft moving toward the view on top Bryce Canyon

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    On an overlook at Bryce Canyon in winter. A low-level stratus layer slowly gives way to light. Similar to another clip with more lighting, the snow begins to brighten near the end of the clip. The lowlands glow in the sun’s radiant intensity. This means they both absorb some of the light and emit it in all directions.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    44 seconds and 2 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.

  • Sun sinks at sunset behind upper-level clouds and valley below

    Scene notes:

    On high clouds and forest hills, the sun sets. The view extends all the way to Mt June, on the far-right of the frame. Partial sunset.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    33 seconds and 21 frames.

  • Slow sunrise of colors on high clouds stirring with shifting, brightening light

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Very small details in the sky in the desert dawn with a sliver of land. The interval used is one second. Slower clips can be more useful for applications such as relaxation and biofeedback. The mid-level clouds are positioned so other clouds do not block the light on the way to their underside.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    41 seconds and 28 frames.

    Scene notes:

    … higher clouds at sunset. Post-sunset, underneath the clouds, the light is caught. Moving to the right, a gradual clearing of glowing mid-level clouds give way to Cirrus clouds still bright in the sunset light in the upper-right half of the frame.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    19 seconds and 11 frames.

  • 3 of 7 | Napali Coast beach sunset scene

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    On the way to sunset in Kauai, by the Napali Coast, multiple layers of clouds move. These clouds quickly roil away from the camera and seemingly following the headlands are on the medium side of density, but they do not need to be heavy to foretell rain is on the way when it’s so humid. Observe the distant layer of headlands which seems to be different layer in the background, slightly glowing. This is due to the moisture in the air. The beach is visible on a small area of the lower left, and the ocean has many small waves rushing in.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    11 seconds and 14 frames.

  • Stark gold light rays slowly move around rolling lower clouds at sunset

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A hole in the cloud cover, and one smaller, scudding cloud in between that and the observer is all it takes for potent light rays to show on the humid air near sunset. The cloud itself creates the shade on the glow and understanding that makes the crepuscular rays logical to understand. The sunlight has radiant intensity, and this shows to the observer the details of the landscape below; trees on vast hills surrounding some countryside and a small pond far away.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    15 seconds and 24 frames.
