Last of a series of clips in this scene, the sunlight leaves the view under the horizon, with small sunbeams defined by clouds on the horizon. Gold and glowing, mid-level clouds are brilliantly lit, and under them, the lower-level rain clouds are scattering over the headlands. The ocean is the lower quarter of the frame, and waves are observed on the beach. They’re ignited in reflected light under the ambient light of the sky. The sand of the beach is a space in the corner.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
3 seconds and 11 frames.
The outline of the Milky Way and Andromeda is visible above the Juniper and other conifer trees, as the Earth whirls and spins, but of course it’s the sky that appears to be rotating. The camera physically pans downward. Airplanes and meteorites are visible. Nearer to the horizon is more light pollution from the central California valley. Aircraft

After blue hour, mid-level clouds, patchy and fleeting, move in steadily in the moonlight, shadows dimly moving on rock faces near the bottom-right of the frame at points. Mt Whitney (center) and neighbors are silhouetted in the night, with nearer mountains that are shorter but much closer on the left and right flanks.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
20 seconds and one frame.
…with city lights behind, aircraft taking off into the sky. An observer on the Marin Headlands sees much of the city from one view, where the bay enters the ocean in the other direction. Spanning the bay is the bridge, cars speeding along as they always do. As night falls, the lights glow reddish, the blues of blue hour change, and the airplanes take off in the sky, which comprises about a sixth of the frame. Ships are seen coming through the bridge and leaving, such as a tugboat escorting a cargo ship.

Altocumulus is the name for the clouds which appear in the second half of the clip above the mountain face. The night is starry and otherwise clear.
