Sharing similarities to another clip, this scene is over flowers with a lone oak in the distance. The
clouds are a mix of low and medium levels. Shadows move over the field of yellow.

10 seconds and 12 frames.
The partial rainbow of the desert vanishes into thin air, rain moving out of the creation zone.
Distant desert foothills have cloud shadows cast on them throughout.

Panning digitally upwards, while the mountains display four levels of cloud cover, with two on its
peaks or flank. Altocumulus appears to follow the low clouds caught on the peaks, with the same
amount of evaporation once over. The fourth layer is the high-altitude Cirrostratus, a layer of
thicker Cirrus, not affected by the lower mountains.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 20 frames.
Sharp peaks up close: young granite spires and glacial erosive features are featured in the lower
ragged third of the frame, while low clouds transform just overhead left-right. On the sheer stone
cliff faces, shadows are clearly moving past. Drops of solid rocks give way to trees where the less
steep terrain allows any growth.

A mostly clear dusk sky over the Inyo mountains lookout. The snow-covered ground is dotted with
Bristlecone pines. In the distance, a vast mountain range that is part of the Sierra Nevada. One
ridge and the furthest ridge create a ‘saddle’ mid-frame and may look like an unlevel horizon, but
such is nature and the wild. The sky is deep into ‘blue hour’.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
27 seconds.
Pink light of the morning sun as it rises above the horizon off-frame from the east. A few fleeting
clouds from the night before linger, as the scene brightens, and day breaks over the fields which
comprises nearly half the frame.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
18 seconds and 22 frames.
Panning right, the shrublands in the foreground comprises the bottom quarter of the frame. Above,
blue-sky with stray lower clouds casting shadow on the ground below, rapidly shifting. The wide
mountain range, snowy and peaked with sharp jagged cliffs, are partly under a blanket, which
transform slowly. ‘Caught’ on the land, they exist only here for any length of time before
evaporating elsewhere.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 24 frames.
…on mountain in the distance beyond clear pastures. Observable on a large hill, low clouds and rain
(left) on these Icelandic farm meadows. Shadows and sunlight on the rain shift as the precipitation
rapidly moves along the Nimbus-cloaked high hills.
