… 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.
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.

Some of the biggest shield volcanoes on Earth created the Hawaiian island chain, which are completely separate from the main continental plates which shape so much of the rest of our world. As such, it seems fitting for Hawaiian to be an exotic and often otherworldly place. For being so new, the islands are, mostly, so green. The verdant landscapes are covered in jungle all the way to their peaks where the cliffs are nearly sheer. The dense woods are home to so many fruiting plants like mango, tart guava berries and sweet pineapple grown for millennia by the indigenous people. With clouds flowing and appearing to get ‘tripped up’ by this peak near center-frame, fog joins the cloud and vice versa, with no clear boundary between. Every visible air current from the orographic lift effect can be seen on the outer cloud.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):

The shoulders of this steep hillside or mountain side is one of many cloaked partially by rain and cloud. A significant mass of damp air gets caught on these features almost daily, due to the temperature and humidity of the island which is owed to the location of Hawaii on the Earth. A bare amount of cerulean sky is visible, but the scene is mostly cloudy.

…rocky, snowy winter peaks. Symmetrical slopes dominate the frame, with rocks and small boulders among evergreens that lead up to near the very tips of these mountain tops. With light, low rolling clouds pouring over and piling on these steep slopes, jagged, snowy peaks poke out like jigsaw teeth.
A diagonally-oriented cloud formation stretches across the frame as higher clouds also meander overhead. On the landscape, a turret-shaped boulder and other oddly shaped formations (right).

A nice spring day with modest lower-level clouds. Their fine definitions create sharp shadows to move over the woods and cypress trees below and beyond in this vast vista. All the way to the horizon the trees cover the gentle hills, which gently rise where the view limits. On the top half of the frame, the medium-small clouds are herd-like in the movements. The wind seems to caress the foreground treescape.
