    Scene notes:

    … and their small lights ascending before dawn. Multi-categorized clip. The moon sets behind Mt Rainier. Looking closely afterward, a distant, single climbing party’s headlights are shown ascending the rugged and impressive slope overnight. Morning comes, a blue hour, and far, far behind some conifers, the snow of the mountain becomes pink momentarily against the rapidly changing sky, until the sky is light blue, and it is day again.

    Scene notes:

    … through a forest with clouds building above. A creek flows through a Colorado forest with a butte-sized land feature in the background (right) showing between the opening of trees at the river’s command. Clouds float and meander, building, above. The evergreen coniferous forest is just behind the large creek crossing, which has stones and boulders throughout. The creek is rushing in the sunlight after shadows from the clouds clear.

    View with alternate video source

  • Mount Rainier with light clouds on its southern face

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A majestic mountain, Mt Rainier has a batch of Cumulus clouds on two flanks this sunny morning. Shadows from them moving over the snow. These are their normal altitudes. The dormant volcano rears up above the alpine, snowy meadow of the foreground. The clouds find the mountain insurmountable, and minuscule cars are seen in the middle of the frame, adding slightly to the interest. A three second interval is used.

    38 seconds and 4 frames.

  • Day to night to dawn on Mt Shasta in winter

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Changing from day to night on the east flank of Mt Shasta, the clouds rapidly change and darken to the night. The stars seem to spin around as the Earth rotates and the sky brightens to morning, light once again on the snow.
