  • Wintery and huge mountain looms overhead

    Scene notes:

    … steeped in clouds, crawling on its slopes. Rock face with rock fall, mixed with these river-shaped eroded areas called cirques, as well as the striations of comprise this mountain that starts as largely shadowed by low clouds. Bright areas of light on the slopes where the clouds break on a massive arête, far too steep for snow (late clip).
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    8 seconds and 29 frames.

  • Sandstone monoliths under fast clouds which cast moving shade

    Scene notes:

    Panning to the right over a red rock canyon, with low clouds of low-density float and meandering overhead, shadows quickly passing through the canyon floor and the large white boulder in the foreground (near clip end).
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 6 frames.

  • 4 of 10 | Sierra Nevada Mountain range and midday clouds

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Medium and lower-level clouds, as well as a small ‘scudding’ layer that is halfway up the mountain’s slopes, transform all along this multicolored mountain and arid landscape of yellows, reds, and whites of snow pack on eroded cliff faces and meltwater channels (center of frame at beginning of clip).
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 15 frames.

  • Clouds with Sierra Nevada range appearing from haze on meadows in the day

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Shadows play across the desert and mountain landscape as the camera pans rightwards. Shadows from these lower clouds that have moved overhead shift the light on the land. High clouds move onward while the stratus layer hugging the mountainous peaks transform in time and the higher wind. The higher north faces of these cliffsides are steeped in snow.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 8 frames.

  • Panning away from red rock monoliths

    Scene notes:

    … and medium-density clouds transforming above. Red stones, extremely unusual in shape outside of the American West, appear as monoliths while the camera pans away to the lower, fluffy clouds in the sky. There is no foreground or horizon shown in this frame.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 2 frames.

  • Panning w/ red sandstone monoliths at blue sunset

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    On complex red sandstone formations, shadows shift intermittently and then for the end duration as the sun sets. Facing east, with mid-level Castellanus clouds appearing to move away as the camera physically pans to the right, where shrublands lay before the stones.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 15 frames.

  • Quickly panning up on Spanish moss covering…

    Scene notes:

    … branches in the woods as shadows move on them. Spanish moss has grown long on these coniferous trees of the scene, which close-up, shows the shadows of other trees and its own branches moving in time. The frame digitally pans downward as the day becomes late, and shadows long. The far-hanging moss is the last feature of these close trees still evident in the light.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    28 seconds and 6 frames.

  • 1 of 2 | Panning past icicles and moss in the forest where shadows move

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Similar to another clip in this scene, the camera is reset in another position. The overhang of moss and a hillside can be an ideal place for icicle formation, as this scene makes apparent. Very low or no wind makes the shade from tree limbs and twigs soft and stably moving across the ground in a predictable direction as the camera slowly pans to the right. Snow still exists in spots on the forest floor, adjacent to these large icicles, droplets visibly forming on their tips of them.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    25 seconds and 2 frames.
