    Scene notes:

    A single, silhouetted cloud at the left of the frames is absolutely dwarfed in comparison to very active electrical storm. It grows rapidly as it nears the point of view. At lower right, the palm trees are by the side of the road, which lights from cars pass by rapidly.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    11 seconds and 2 frames.

  • Rain shower from a Cumulonimbus cloud approaches

    Scene notes:

    The cloud approaches darkening the valley landscape below. An incoming Nimbus cloud blocks the light, rain can be seen in the distance, precipitating. The cloud takes up the whole of the sky.

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A clip divided by an exposure adjustment. The storm (right)moves into view as the daylight wanes, and the desert landscape with its red clay dims. In the distance three sharply pointed hills have eroded to the point where one tiny peak stands out on each mound, rock piles evenly spread around from crumbling.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    7 seconds and 21 frames.

  • Sunset that is illuminated from behind where there is rain and clouds rolling

    Scene notes:

    Original footage from 2005. The storm floats overhead, rain catching sunlight from the other side of the cumulonimbus on the west. Enough filters through during sunset that the precipitation takes on bright orange hues.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    9 seconds.

  • Thunderstorm in sky with low wedge-shaped cloud marking cold outflow and wind
