  • On steep mountain cliff peaks, morning clouds grip…

    Scene notes:

    … the slopes and loiter on almost no wind. One may assume on first viewing a few seconds of watching the stratus is inevitably going to override the sky, but that does not happen; instead, the clouds are caught and created on the mountain peaks. Four snowy peaks, with one dominating the left quarter, in deep snow, are intermittently covered. The other three have sheer faces too steep for any snow to cling to. The light turns pinker as time moves on.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    22 seconds and 14 frames.

  • Snow melting on small mushrooms hiding under shadows

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A fifteen second interval is used to capture the compacted snow melting, with shadows of the vegetation moving over three smaller mushrooms, with one largely hidden in shadows; the snow takes on an icy appearance as it melts.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 16 frames.

  • 1 of 2 | A snowy and frosted forest hill is brightly lit up at sunset

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A very snowy forest hill with a steep slope, and only one mossy stone. A magic hour sunset illuminates the snow, and the snow takes on ambient light, pink, while some direct sunlight gets through the woods to shine directly on nearby, snowy branches, frosted from a night and day of freezing temperatures. A five second interval is used.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 15 frames.

  • Winter light rays on fog shining through frosty…

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Snowy, frost-kissed branches which create shade. An exemplar of the beginning of winter in Oregon’s forest. Sopping wet Spanish Moss hangs from several thin branches is illuminated brilliantly in complex light rays, created from fog moving in and out of the scene. They stretch left-right from the small tree. More hanging beards of Spanish moss on the right help to create these shadows, and the sun slowly moves in the bright pale blue-sky that is barely seen behind these evergreen trees in the forest beyond.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    15 seconds.
