  • Behind some trees, Lake Tahoe and a pink sunset of Cirrus

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Even the snow of the foreground is pink from the ambient light of the clouds. A fiery canvas ablaze with the day’s last minutes, streaks of vibrant crimson and passionate pink ignite the western sky. Below, a tranquil expanse of water mirrors the celestial drama, reflecting hues of rose and lavender. Silhouetted pines stand sentinel along the snowy banks, their dark forms a stark contrast to the luminous horizon. Distant, snow-capped peaks fade into a soft, ethereal blue, a gentle boundary between earth and the incandescent heavens. The snow continues in the distant mountain Mt Tallac (far away and at right).

    27 seconds and 23 frames.

    Scene notes:

    … under clouds and shadows beyond a small lake. Past a lake, in the distance on some rugged and steep hills leading to higher peaks, a large grove of Aspen trees is under frequent shadowing from heavier low clouds, which are moving away from the point of view. Snow can be seen on the higher altitudes in different places.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    5 seconds and 17 frames.

  • Shadows and the breeze on pristine waters of Crater Lake and Wizard Island

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    The lake caldera spans the frame, with Wizard Hat Island in the upper-right of the frame. The snow on the north facing slopes make the right-side of the frame a winter landscape around the water. The lake itself has many different breezes playing on its surface, owing to the shape of the rim that encircles it. Rocky cliffs frame the lower left and right, with smaller junipers and other species of trees.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 5 frames.
