    Scene notes:

    This clip is illustrative of the under lighting that happens after the sun has set. From the altitude of the clouds, the light is still briefly shining on them, and the clouds are turned pink and red with oranges in between, and different levels of clouds are shown to move in differing directions according to the winds at those altitudes.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    4 seconds and 21 frames.

    Scene notes:

    From the viewpoint on the hill, the valley and lake is seen below. While nine-tenths of the frame is composed of the sky’s clouds and glowing on distant mountains. Two layers of clouds are present, a low-level and medium-level. On the medium level, the glow of light supplements the direct under-lighting on it. Pinks, oranges, and reds play out on the sky as the sun peaks out one last time for the day in 2005. The lower-level clouds moves towards the camera.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 3 frames.

  • Dark cloud flows into the point of view with leading edge at dusk

    Scene notes:

    Precipitation and high wind; this Nimbus is not a violent one, but is dense and dark where it has its rain, like usual for a storm cloud. Rain is diffusing the glowing light below it, and the underside of the storm is lit from the ambient glow.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    10 seconds and 13 frames.

    Scene notes:

    The thundercloud has become wispy and listless in its old age, but remains tall and huge. Another layer of mid-level cloud comes in as the sun is done for the day, and night comes to blue hour.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 7 frames.
