Many clips of Precipice are like one another, and some share the same scene at different times. All Precipice clips take place on a steep drop-off, even if that drop is out of frame. They all have in common a cloud or fog layer either at below the point of view’s elevation and are at or near sunset.

A one second interval is used for this fast-changing, windy scene. This glowing is the effect of the sun being close to setting for the night. On rocks in the foreground (left), the sunlight is also present. On low-level clouds at right, the light also glows. The wind whips the present fog.
