View with alternate video source
Scene notes:
Where light is reflected off the ocean and lights from beneath the mid-level clouds, it makes these gold colors. A clear view of the sun to the ocean with clouds overhead the observer is not an everyday occurrence where the balance must be ‘just so’.

Scene notes:
…over a canyon valley vista with waterfall in the afternoon. As the sun sets in the afternoon, the shadows slowly rise, with a few cloud shadow casts moving along the view below. A massive waterfall is dwarfed by a cone shaped peak with some snow in the frame’s center. Three trees in the foreground are silhouetted. The sun still shines on the Yosemite vista, a forest of partly burned evergreens among the cliffs of the frame’s left side. In the top half, a low cloud billows upward as it also disintegrates.
