Clouds float by overhead and on mountains. The continuation of another clip. The camera’s orientation and position has been adjusted. A two second interval is used.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
10 seconds and 26 frames.
The mountain range is bathed in alpenglow, pink ambient lighting. High clouds provide the color, minutes after sunset in the winter. The mountain range is expansive in height and width, and is also defined by striated rock steps, cirques, flutings, fallen seracs, crags, long cornices, ice walls, and summits. The range at right has ice and snow fields as well as rock steps and an aret’e peak. The wide sky composes roughly two thirds of the frame.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
8 seconds and 19 frames.
… and blue sky, facing east at sunset to Mt Shasta. Here a low-level cloud strand streak off the summit, and mid-level altostratus clouds catch the colorful sunset light. The mountain (lower left) is snow-covered and stands beyond a foothill of Manzanita bushes and shrubs, as well as distant evergreen Conifers.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
43 seconds and 2 frames.
Shadows play across the desert and mountain landscape as the camera pans rightwards. Shadows from these lower clouds that have moved overhead shift the light on the land. High clouds move onward while the stratus layer hugging the mountainous peaks transform in time and the higher wind. The higher north faces of these cliffsides are steeped in snow.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 8 frames.
Medium and lower-level clouds, as well as a small ‘scudding’ layer that is halfway up the mountain’s slopes, transform all along this multicolored mountain and arid landscape of yellows, reds, and whites of snow pack on eroded cliff faces and meltwater channels (center of frame at beginning of clip).
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 15 frames.
The partial rainbow of the desert vanishes into thin air, rain moving out of the creation zone. Distant desert foothills have cloud shadows cast on them throughout.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 19 frames.
Panning digitally upwards, while the mountains display four levels of cloud cover, with two on its peaks or flank. Altocumulus appears to follow the low clouds caught on the peaks, with the same amount of evaporation once over. The fourth layer is the high-altitude Cirrostratus, a layer of thicker Cirrus, not affected by the lower mountains.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 20 frames.
Cumulus picking up more reddened light due to the angle of the sun. The light is post-sunset. Clouds at low and medium levels move in the same wind overhead and past. A three second interval is used.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
33 seconds and 21 frames.
