Panning downward slowly, a slow moving rain cloud complex over a plan during dusk. Rain can be
observed in the distance at the very bottom of the frame, as well as a distant tree line. The clouds
range from strongly tinged pink to Halloween orange as the sunset progresses.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
17 seconds and 12 frames.
… reddish-tinged clouds from city lights as they pass by over. Demonstrating the power of
city lights in the night sky, long exposures show the bright illumination of passing rain
clouds. These clouds are too stable or short to create lightning, but can make massive
precipitation, as is nearly every day in the summer in this part of the state of Florida.
Their massive size is shadowed but easily seen in the upper-right. Helicopters or light
airplanes are seen flying along the skyline’s altitude.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds and 1 frame.
… Airport, SFO at night under rainy clouds. The continuation of another clip (the camera has been
moved). The airplane traffic (bottom right) zips by more frequently, landing at the airport. Other
air traffic is seen. The city lights take up a sliver of the bottom of the frame. The
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds and 2 frames.
Rain and shadows on Waimea Canyon. Waterfalls are visible on the opposite side of the canyon in the
background (left). Plants on the right of the frame are blowing in the breeze. On the bottom left,
orange stones are brighter under the shade of thinner clouds.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
15 seconds and 2 frames.
… reddish-tinged clouds from city lights as they pass by over The continuation of another clip. The
camera’s orientation and position has been adjusted.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
11 seconds and 12 frames.
From the viewpoint on the hill, the valley and lake is seen below. While nine-tenths of the frame is
composed of the sky’s clouds and glowing on distant mountains. Two layers of clouds are present, a
low-level and medium-level. On the medium level, the glow of light supplements the direct
under-lighting on it. Pinks, oranges, and reds play out on the sky as the sun peaks out one last time
for the day in 2005. The lower-level clouds moves towards the camera.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 3 frames.
Precipitation and high wind; this Nimbus is not a violent one, but is dense and dark where it has its
rain, like usual for a storm cloud. Rain is diffusing the glowing light below it, and the underside
of the storm is lit from the ambient glow.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds and 13 frames.
The continuation of another clip. Other clips in this sequence include visible cloud structures and
‘blue hour’.
