  • Sierra Nevada Mountain range and midday clouds panning

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Wide-angle view of Sierra Nevada and the deep blue-sky above, panning leftward over the shrublands and dynamically shadowed landscape from clouds passing by at low, medium, and high altitude.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    11 seconds and 26 frames.

  • Very slow light shaft moving toward the view on top Bryce Canyon

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    On an overlook at Bryce Canyon in winter. A low-level stratus layer slowly gives way to light. Similar to another clip with more lighting, the snow begins to brighten near the end of the clip. The lowlands glow in the sun’s radiant intensity. This means they both absorb some of the light and emit it in all directions.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    44 seconds and 2 frames.

  • Arrowleaf Balsomroot on a meadow before red rock…

    Scene notes:

    Rock formations under light midday clouds flowing overhead. Sandstone spires stand tall into the sky looking down from afar on yellow flowering Arrowleaf Balsomroot plants all around the foreground. The meadow comprises half the frame, and a hill rises green to change into the red ground and shrubs into formations of pure stone.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    12 seconds and 2 frames.

  • Sun telephoto sinking down under horizon, optical refraction

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Extreme close-up view of the setting sun. Optical distortion from the atmosphere, and extremely distant clouds from an unknown distance span the length of the orb while it is nearest the horizon.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    40 seconds and 20 frames.

  • At fall, distant aspen grove with yellow leaves…

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    … under clouds and shadows beyond a small lake. Past a lake, in the distance on some rugged and steep hills leading to higher peaks, a large grove of Aspen trees is under frequent shadowing from heavier low clouds, which are moving away from the point of view. Snow can be seen on the higher altitudes in different places.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    5 seconds and 17 frames.

  • In Strokkur, Iceland, thermal vents with fall trees and hillside in the background under clouds

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Near this grove of autumn trees, a many colored, a rocky and steep foothill looms to the upper-right of the frame, on which shadows of the clouds move slowly over. Nearer in the foreground, hints of steamy geysers pass quickly. The yellow trees seem to vibrate slightly in the wind.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    14 seconds and 6 frames.

  • 2 of 4 | Over the Bay, planes land

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    …at San Francisco Airport, SFO at night under rainy clouds. Rain is shown entering the frame from left in the rain clouds over the airport as planes continue to land, moving against the rain’s direction in the frame, over the water. As with the other three in this series, the clouds are largely illuminated by city lights.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    8 seconds and 7 frames.

  • 2 of 2 | Altostratus clouds cloaking the sun at dusk with scattering of color

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    Cirrostratus (layered stratus) appears to be more Cirrocumulus when shined on by the sun below the horizon. A very distant mountain of the coastline in Oregon is backlit and made to look so small by the very colorful sky above with the colors of orange, pink and red, made better by a clear, flat, and blue patch of sky for contrast.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    13 seconds and 17 frames.
