  • Time-lapse on beach under partly cloudy skies…

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    … with multiple layers of colorful glowing clouds at dusk. Looking up from a beach on Kauai, there are different cloud layers to be seen above. As the sky darkens, the upper-level clouds are illuminated from below. These small rain showers are common on the island chain where surface heating makes them bloom in the sun during daylight and dissipate at night. The lower storm cloud is raining moderately out-of-frame.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 12 frames.

  • Floating parallel to shore of the Pacific Ocean…

    Scene notes:

    … with waves flowing on rocks below. Cerulean sky above, the ocean below as we are over the water. The headlands of the coast are clear at points, as are the stones that make the shore so rocky. At about 300ft (or 100m) altitude, waves look small as they crash below. The deep blue see stretches into the north where the fog is already gone from the daylight heating, but the landscape makes fog formation here more likely.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 12 frames.

  • Floating to monoliths on the Pacific Ocean shore…

    Scene notes:

    … with waves flowing on rocks below. The UAS moves towards a monolith among an outcrop of stone and shallow beach waves. A full motion clip with no interval of photos. Just beyond the monolith is a fog bank that is slowly moving towards the camera, with smaller wisps moving over the rocky shore.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    1 minute, 6 seconds and 17 frames.

  • Light from the sun reflectsoff the ocean onto clouds

    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’.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    18 seconds and 6 frames.
  • Ocean focused on gentle beach with clouds in distance

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    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

  • Floating over the Pacific Ocean shore with waves flowing on rocks below

    Scene notes:

    Moving south, the UAV points down to a broken fog bank, which is breaking on the rocky shore from beyond. Glistening far below, waves move towards the headlands and rocky outcrops. White foam on the rockiest areas as well as further out where the waves break.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    37 seconds and 6 frames.
