White spruce and other species of trees in the northern Canadian boreal forest stand below the

further near the horizon behind tree shapes and are more nebulous and stratified overhead closer turn
more vibrant purples and pinks. The camera faces the west at sunrise at clip’s end.

The mountain range is bathed in alpenglow, pink ambient lighting. High clouds provide the color,
minutes after sunset in the winter. The mountain range is expansive in height and width, and is also
defined by striated rock steps, cirques, flutings, fallen seracs, crags, long cornices, ice walls,
and summits. The range at right has ice and snow fields as well as rock steps and an aret’e peak. The
wide sky composes roughly two thirds of the frame.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
8 seconds and 19 frames.
Almost silhouetted in the morning blue hour, stones of the Alabama Hills in California lay large in

light.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):

In the distance over Lake Tahoe, a fog bank is rolling. In the sky, clouds and crisscrossing
contrails are illuminated around 40,000 ft in the morning sun, when colors change fastest (with the
exception of dusk). The chardonnay yellows of the horizon and bluish-purple of the deep sky this dawn
are on display.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 11 frames.
Pines and other conifers are framing the sky on all sides of the scene in the early morning above
Lake Tahoe, which is surrounded by a forest, and blanketed partially with a fog layer. The sky
quickly brightens as high clouds and an airplane contrail turn all the colors of sunrise. The ground
is snowy. A similar clip exists.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
38 seconds and 4 frames.
