    Scene notes:

    Exemplars of aiguille-shaped peaks that travel over a kilometer down, glaciers included. The clouds create crepuscular (afternoon) rays from humidity and shadows. The light shines on some of the slopes. The mountains comprise nine-tenths of the frame.

    Scene notes:

    A one second interval is used to capture a geyser venting steam vapor in the cold morning dawn. In a far meadow, other smaller geysers look like a thin fog bank. Resembling a small pine tree, a lone tree in the foreground stands two-thirds of the frame’s height. A small river runs from center to the bottom-right of the frame.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    7 seconds and 1 frame.
