Yellowstone River in Yellowstone N.P., Wyoming, with steam from hot springs and thermals erupting in
late morning. The river flows 676 miles total, with 600 or so to go from here, before meeting the
Missouri River. SKU/clip number: DAY340
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
12 seconds.
Scattered ferns in the frame, light rays above: there is a large and tall tree stump at left, and
many fine light rays pass into the forest from fog ending just above. SKU/clip number: FRS056.
Time-lapse length (30 fps): 17 seconds.
An early day partial rainbow with rain nebulous in the background, just so.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds frames.
Up very close to an active thermal vent in Yellowstone. The fastest motion even from a very short
interval.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
13 seconds.
Thermal vents surrounded by trees in the early morning release steam into cold air, which speeds
condensation from hot water. The temperature contrast is higher in winter and colder weather.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds.
Hot springs venting steam, resembling rapidly rising clouds. Due to the energetic and copious steam
from unusually high activity, this has the fastest motion of all timelapses on this site.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds.
Orographic effects on clouds can be varied. One tried and true method of identifying orographic
clouds: do the clouds appear around the mountaintops and nowhere else? This affirmative can safely
indicate an orographic effect: when the landscape influences the clouds directly. The sunrise
requires no clouds at all to filter through at full radiant intensity. Slowly shifting clouds with
little to no transformation over time can indicate very stable air. The mountain range brightens in
the morning sun.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
32 seconds and 26 frames.
