    …under Grand Canyon viewpoint in the snowy winter. A foreground of white, a middle ground of orange stone, and a background of all the stone colors of the southwest.

  • Vivid light rays on fog through a cypress tree on a hill

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Generally speaking, the foggy forest is not a dynamic source of light- it’s normally diffuse and thick enough so the light above cannot even penetrate it. But when the ceiling of the fog is at the altitude of the observer, the sunbeams highlight the ferns on the forest floor.

    10 seconds and 20 frames.
