… as they are seen from below, moving away from POV. An original, renewed time-lapse of the sky with
clouds.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds and 2 frames.
… in daylight heating above distant trees. Birth of a Cumulonimbus, a rising congestus carrying
enough moisture to darken and sprout rain while it grows nearer. This exemplar of a congestus, a
towering Cumulus cloud that has not become a Nimbus, reaches higher and higher into the sky until the
day has become cloudy with a high chance of precipitation. Often other low stratus clouds obscure
clouds like this, but they are quite common.

23 seconds and 1 frame..
…National Park. A famous view over a canyon valley vista with waterfall in the afternoon 1 of 2. Above
the side-road parking lot, overlooking Yosemite Valley on a perfectly fifty percent cloudy day there is
a POV. High up on a trail away from the tour buses, a maintained path leads straight up the hill face,
warm and dry ground on this day. these cumulus meander in the general direction of the wind, their
shadows moving along the greenery and granite of these steep cliff faces and arched domes in the
distance, Half Dome, still with the bits of snowy outcrops on its very top.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
20 seconds and 27 frames.
Thermals in the lower levels of the sky, formed by the ground heating, pillow in shape and
cauliflower or Lion’s Mane mushroom in appearance, confluence together as dense, steamy masses, that
climb. SKU/clip number: DAY336
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds.
A shallow and calm beach typical of the Gulf, three quarters of the frame is ocean with building
tropical clouds in the distance, about one sixth of the frame, under a blue-sky in the remaining six.
A distant tree line far on the beach with tropical trees and signs of people on the left. Fine
details of the ripples of sand under the clear water with caustic lights on the floor, the water is
aquamarine up-close. 30 fps Time-lapse length:10 seconds, 22 frames
Another similar scene to Day111A, an ocean view looking on the Miami skyline from the east. Groups of
taller, late-afternoon clouds, tilting towards their direction of wind, as if italicized and
colorful, dwarf the tallest buildings, which are reflected on the calm waters of the bay. A three
second interval is used. The clouds’ lighter colors are Fawn to Lime Oak.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds and 18 frames.
Rocky Mountain National Park on a partly cloudy day looking east from a viewpoint with towering clouds
just off in the distance, their shadows quickly traversing the landscape as it becomes cloudier.
… in daylight heating above distant trees. A growing, towering Cumulus before a wider stratus cloud
that is far greater in volume. Stratus clouds like these may have formed initially from ground
heating. Such smaller rain clouds may spread out to turn into a layer (a stratus) instead of being
pushed along with a surviving core to regenerate. In these local pockets of rising air, the humidity
around the cloud condenses into visibility.
