BLUFF TOP CLOUDY SUNSET

I was a bit late getting home from work and was not so quick to change and load up my photo gear.  The sunset forecast for this evening was not great; however the weather was so nice  (40+ degrees on the 18th of December). I decided to venture out anyway.

I didn’t have enough time to get where I wanted to.  Alternatively I found a n area on top of a bluff along a road with an area of wide-open space.   If I wasn’t going to see an resemblance of a sunset, it could be viewed from here.

When the conditions are not necessarily what you are hoping for in a typical sunset, there are options.  Abundant clouds in motion are perfect for time-lapse.  I only wish I had gotten there sooner and had more time.  Just under and hour of shooting yielded 5 whole seconds of video.

I used the Syrp Genie Mini Camera Motion Control – Wireless to achieve the rotation.  An excellent way to introduce motion into your time-lapse sequences.
