These Yellowflag Iris flowers are an exemplar of their kind. Panning past this stone covered in
lichen and moss, the flowers quiver in the spring breeze on this hilltop. The ground has the shade of
a conifer tree trunk moving over the grass and stones.

A continuation of another clip. This panning ends at a Purple Camas flower cluster about eight
individual flowers in one plant that have bloomed in the spring, under shifting shadows and before a
mossy fallen tree, mossy stones, and a very small creek, grasses interjecting wildly in a place or
two.

The outline of the Milky Way and Andromeda is visible above the Juniper and other conifer trees, as
the Earth whirls and spins, but of course it’s the sky that appears to be rotating. The camera
physically pans downward. Airplanes and meteorites are visible. Nearer to the horizon is more light
pollution from the central California valley. Aircraft

Alongside a forest creek runs a mossy downed tree, and starting this clip, a forest backdrop in the
upper-right. Everywhere else, long grass and purple crocus flowers sprang plentifully along the creek
bed. The camera pans left along the fallen tree, revealing more moss that is going in and out of
moving shadows from the day’s progression.

… by city light under stars, aircraft flying over Observable are high Cirrus clouds passing out of
the sky’s starry night. Land sky traffic is visible above Lake Tahoe City on the opposite end of the
lake. Taken by the northwest of the lake with cedars making a silhouette (left).

As the point-of-view pans to the right over melting ice on a foreground rock, the fog, just beyond
the close tree line below, begins to inundate. Sunbeams are observed during moments of time when the
fog’s upper visible limit is the same altitude as the trees. On a grassy slope that comprises the
middle ground, the fog eventually becomes an obscuring factor in the sunset light.

Many clips of Precipice are like one another, and some share the same scene at different times. All
Precipice clips take place on a steep drop-off, even if that drop is out of frame. They all have in
common a cloud or fog layer either at below the point of view’s elevation and are at or near
sunset.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds and 3 frames.
