Panning to the right mechanically near some tree, possibly a cottonwood, near some canyons in Utah in
the mid-day.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 6 frames.
A clip divided by an exposure adjustment. The storm (right)moves into view as the daylight wanes, and
the desert landscape with its red clay dims. In the distance three sharply pointed hills have eroded to
the point where one tiny peak stands out on each mound, rock piles evenly spread around from
crumbling.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
7 seconds and 21 frames.
Original footage from 2005. The storm floats overhead, rain catching sunlight from the other side of
the cumulonimbus on the west. Enough filters through during sunset that the precipitation takes on
bright orange hues.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds.
Preview synopsis: Do not watch if you have had an epileptic seizure; if using in a project, include
a similar content warning as a best-practice. An ad-free, 720p, 30 fps preview of this clip to
stream and play for your consideration.
Scene notes:
A single, silhouetted cloud at the left of the frames is absolutely dwarfed in comparison to very
active electrical storm. It grows rapidly as it nears the point of view. At lower right, the palm trees
are by the side of the road, which lights from cars pass by rapidly.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
11 seconds and 2 frames.
Precipitation is seen flowing over the mountain slopes as cloud shadows brighten the foreground and
middle-distance desert landscape on and off. Patches of blue-sky peek through mixed cloud levels.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
4 seconds and 20 frames.
The cloud approaches darkening the valley landscape below. An incoming Nimbus cloud blocks the light,
rain can be seen in the distance, precipitating. The cloud takes up the whole of the sky.
Time-lapse length (30 fps):
9 seconds and 5 frames.
