Scene notes:
…peak and hillside in late afternoon. A one second interval was used in this scene to catch the fast-moving lower clouds. On the acutely angled nearby hillsides of the Napali coastline on Kauai, a western volcanic island in the Hawaiian Islands. Vegetation of nearby trees is visible in the outer edges on the wind. Due to the very extremely recentness of the island’s volcanic formation, these steep cliffs are less uncommon on the headlands of the west coast of Kauai.

Scene notes:
… on mountainous coast casting shadows. In this UAS-based time-lapse, a two second interval is used to capture the meandering cloud that produces the rain. The rain creates an optical rainbow. Cerulean sky of the day is behind the clouds. The machine flies towards a rainbow made by the same clouds as sunset clips of this scene from the ground. Jungle is seen below, and the steep slopes approach the viewpoint of the camera. The rainbow stays near the center of the frame as the drone stays outside boundaries in a free fly zone. Rust colored stone comprises the new volcanic headlands.

Scene notes:
Some of the biggest shield volcanoes on Earth created the Hawaiian island chain, which are completely separate from the main continental plates which shape so much of the rest of our world. As such, it seems fitting for Hawaiian to be an exotic and often otherworldly place. For being so new, the islands are, mostly, so green. The verdant landscapes are covered in jungle all the way to their peaks where the cliffs are nearly sheer. The dense woods are home to so many fruiting plants like mango, tart guava berries and sweet pineapple grown for millennia by the indigenous people. With clouds flowing and appearing to get ‘tripped up’ by this peak near center-frame, fog joins the cloud and vice versa, with no clear boundary between. Every visible air current from the orographic lift effect can be seen on the outer cloud.

Scene notes:
Classic ‘arete’ shaped mountaintops above a conifer-surrounded lake, the three peaks in full sunlight with only a minimal cloud or two and barely two gentle breezes on the pristine, still water. Time-lapse length (at 30 fps): 5 seconds and 1 frame.
