    Scene notes:

    Altocumulus mackerel undulating, casting. An extremely large ‘arete’ shape on the mountain across the valley, massive and snow covered, formed from glaciers on both sides creating an axe-shaped ridge. Like the scales on a Mackerel, the mid-level clouds cast shadows on the vista of mountains beyond, wooded with evergreens and snow, as the town of Banff sits below-right. Time-lapse length (at 30 fps): 5 seconds and 25 frames.

  • On Mt Pilatus by Lucerne, Switzerland, clouds in winter below

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Lucerne Lake, 6 kilometers below, is the center of the frame’s focus. A snowy slope, and a sheer cliff ridge below Pilatus’ peak extends into a third of the frame. The surrounding lakeside far below is finely cultivated greenery and forest area. The outskirts of Lucerne’s municipalities are also visible below, as are the clouds which will have no chance of climbing the mountain’s top surface and extend as small formations to the tops of the foothills and snowy peaks far beyond to the southeast.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    9 seconds and 3 frames.

  • Wintery and huge mountain looms overhead

    Scene notes:

    … steeped in clouds, crawling on its slopes. Rock face with rock fall, mixed with these river-shaped eroded areas called cirques, as well as the striations of comprise this mountain that starts as largely shadowed by low clouds. Bright areas of light on the slopes where the clouds break on a massive arête, far too steep for snow (late clip).

  • Mount Shasta from the south, partly within lower cloud, at winter mid-day

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    An orographically-formed cloud contained on the upper slopes of Mt Shasta, outer parts evaporating to reveal it blanketing smoothly the peaks and peaet of the northern California mountain. The ancient volcano is dormant and comprises two thirds of the frame: the blue-sky above.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    9 seconds and 17 frames.

    12 seconds and 6 frames.
