  • On a hilltop, looking out at cloud shadows moving on fields

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A nice spring day with modest lower-level clouds. Their fine definitions create sharp shadows to move over the woods and cypress trees below and beyond in this vast vista. All the way to the horizon the trees cover the gentle hills, which gently rise where the view limits. On the top half of the frame, the medium-small clouds are herd-like in the movements. The wind seems to caress the foreground treescape.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    21 seconds and 3 frames.

  • 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.

  • Dimming ocean of marine layer clouds on a view…

    Scene notes:

    …at dusk on Mt Tamalpais as sunset passes by. Stratocumulus clouds stretch for miles far below the serene meadow hills with creeping, windblown trees. The open sky is a ‘Hoki’ color, or a dusty-blue, and the horizon is a mix of Dusky Rose and Pale Oranges that make up the quarter of the frame. California sage brush, Chaparral, and Oaks are the main types of trees and shrubs shown.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 29 frames.

  • On distant Colorado peaks and valleys roll shadows of the building clouds

    Scene notes:

    Low clouds are attempting to build on the Grand Tetons in the early daylight. The peaks are low on glacial ice, due to late summer.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
