Day to night to dawn on Mt Shasta in winter
View with alternate video source
Scene notes:
Changing from day to night on the east flank of Mt Shasta, the clouds rapidly change and darken to the night. The stars seem to spin around as the Earth rotates and the sky brightens to morning, light once again on the snow.

Pink dusk Cirrus clouds above Lake Tahoe in winter as light fades
Scene notes:
Lake Tahoe in the distance is seen through trees as the dusk sets in and the upper-level clouds turn from pink to being illuminated by city lights. The snowy foreground shadowed; airplanes are seen far in the sky moving through the frame. Stars come out after blue hour. On the one road visible, traffic moves quickly, and a ship is seen moving from afar.

Scene notes:
… which strobe, creep, and flow in the night sky. Comprised of charged particles, the lights are playing on the magnetism of the Earth. Mid-level stratus clouds are lit by town lights far away. Long exposures and low ‘coma’ (comatic aberration).

High above clouds and volcanic landscapes

Scene notes:
… rolling cumuliform clouds into beyond. The clouds far below show signs of weak convection. The volcanic landscape is silhouetted, sloping slightly for a distance before dropping off. The stratus layer below flows slowly towards the right, while the lifting air currents run counter for their cycle above the layer below.

Marine layer over hills that are blanketing

Scene notes:
… the forest above Mill Valley and on Mt Tamalpais. Similar at a first glance to a creek in long exposures, fog flowing central of frame takes the shapes of running water, while remaining gaseous vapor. The layer that came in from the ocean runs far into the horizon. Even very far away on the horizon, headlands rise slightly above the stratus. Playback length at 30 fps: 25 seconds.

1 of 2 | Behind stones in the valley, bright fog flows below on the dark woods

Scene notes:
Oranges like Tacao and Harvest Gold turn into Purples like Ferra as the sunsets, and the fog appears to move like a liquid solid – while being entirely vapor.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
32 seconds and 8 frames. -
Brightly flowing eye-level fog layer just beyond some trees, rolling dramatically
View with alternate video source
Scene notes:
A single ridge of fog bisects this stratus layer of fog beyond with no foreground. Cloud-fog the color of Butterscotch on their tops where the hits them, and pouring steadily towards the left, as if it’s a river about to turn into a drop and become a waterfall.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds and 11 frames.
