  • Half-frozen Tioga Lake view of Mt Lyell…

    Scene notes:

    … under some very light transforming clouds and shade. North of Yosemite Valley is the highway to connect to the other side of the state. This Tioga Pass Road is closed much of the year due to snowfall. The snowy landscape vista stretches out to Mt Lyell of the Sierra Nevada Mountain range, which passes through the National Park.

    Scene notes:

    On a lake in the Sierra Nevadas, heavier cumulus clouds flow overhead. Rocky and rugged terrain lead the way before it. The shadows of the clouds flow smoothly over distant autumn trees

  • 3 of 3 | Shifting, dark snowy rain clouds on vast lake

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Wind on water is visible throughout this frame. Strong gusts push the water chaotically on the surface of the vast, deep volcanic caldera. So much freshwater fills this vast crater that it is one of the deepest lakes in the world, the lake spans well outside the viewing angle of this POV. After days of solitude and nothing but clouds, light shafts eventually peak through the cloud and snowfall to brightly illuminate sections of water next to Wizard Hat Island.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    17 seconds and 5 frames.

  • 2 of 2 | Behind trees, a small fog blanket rolls on Lake Tahoe at sunrise

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    In the distance over Lake Tahoe, a fog bank is rolling. In the sky, clouds and crisscrossing contrails are illuminated around 40,000 ft in the morning sun, when colors change fastest (with the exception of dusk). The chardonnay yellows of the horizon and bluish-purple of the deep sky this dawn are on display.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    7 seconds and 11 frames.
