  • Shadows rising on San Francisco, Golden Gate Bridge…

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    …overbright areas fade as the sun sets away from the point-of-view. Looking east in the late afternoon, you can observe ‘the City’ from afar, behind the long red bridge. Wind on water currents make ripples, as is the traffic on the 101 Highway that spans the bridge. Shadows become longer as the sun sets first on the foreground grassy slopes, and then the ocean bay.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    13 seconds and 20 frames.

  • Late afternoon land sea traffic around Golden Gate

    Scene notes:

    The brick-red Golden Gate Bridge spans the frame, never-ceasing traffic flow pouring through. Under, beyond, and before, ships of all sail, motor, and port into the bay. Observe baby-sized waves on the headlands below, made apparent by the time-lapse.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    26 seconds and 18 frames.

    Scene notes:

    A bright marine fog layer slowly evaporates around the Golden Gate Bridge, a small ship is seen exiting as the fog recedes. The Marin Headlights are exposed to day in the middle ground between this point of view and the bay.

    Scene notes:

    A small ship is seen in the water steaming out to see late in the clip. Throughout, two layers of clouds. While fog rolls on the distant foothills of a mountain, the shadows break through where the upper layer gives way to sun. Time-lapse length (at 30 fps): 18 seconds and 5 frames.

  • Late day San Francisco Golden Gate with boats, fog, traffic, shadows rising

    Scene notes:

    A fog manages to cling to visibility moving into the bay, especially on the left of the frame, and shadows rise from the headlands on the hills. A cargo ship is seen mid-way through the clip exiting the bay. The city is fully visible in the distant left.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    13 seconds and 1 frame.
