    Scene notes:

    … in Waimea Canyon in Kauai, Hawaii. Reds and greens like nowhere else. This old volcanic area has very young volcanic and erosion features. The jungle is everywhere soils can accumulate. Waterfalls and countless rock steps are throughout. The shadows are variable in their contrast and dimness. The clouds overhead are low and smoothly flowing, covering about half of the sky.

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Observing the steep jungle headlands, rain is seen on the glowing cliffs, moving under these glowing lower-level clouds, fluffy formations of warm moisture. The Napali Coast has ancient, walk-able trails. Stretching away in shadow now, the foreground is the beach in the lower left. Trees frame the headlands, also left. At right, the ocean is coming in on gentle fast waves, and ‘altostratus’ move left to right in the upper-frame space. The horizon is a mix of colors, like saffron-mango, and sand. The clear sky areas are a Kashmir-blue.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
