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.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
38 seconds and 24 frames.
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.

59 seconds and 14 frames.
Deep into blue hour, mountain peaks behind the point of view cast dark shadows deep into the pink, dusk sky. Facing a desert landscape which comprises an eighth of the frame, largely as a silhouette. The moon, full, is seen alone in space. A few low-level clouds in the distance.

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.

An evening on windy Mt Diablo, a foreground of vegetation precedes the several hills in small layers of fog. The wind whips the fog over the hillsides below, as the humid air glows brightly near the sun in the upper-third of the frame. Only in the distance of the Bay area are there more fog layers. The sky is otherwise cloudless, as the close fog passes nearby intermittently, brightening the whole scene for brief moments.

Eleven distinct ‘waves’ of cloud banks can be observed spanning the clip’s payback. At this elevation, the tops of stratus clouds beyond and just a few hundred meters away move very quickly in the wind. An effect on the cloud from the land can be seen, owing to the ‘crashing’ transformation effect that the waves of clouds rapidly show. As the afternoon progresses closer to sunset, the color begins to change as well.

… blanket of fog shines on forest at sunset. A marine cloud layer at about 3500 ft is the flank of Mt. June facing west. The sun is not yet visible in the frame, and the clouds begin to turn pinker as time moves forward,

Framed by trees on Mt June, this stable inversion layer is very close to the camera. One may assume fairly that the start of the clip is going to show the fog coming in quickly, but this does not happen. Explanatory info: Batteries of cameras do not last long in the mid-2000’s due to contemporaneous technology.
