I have a couple of new movies. Both movies run until the sun sets on the Chiricahua mountains. Because they capture the sunset there is a significant about of lens flare. I don’t think it detracts from the movie, but I’d be interested in other opinions.

This one is about ten hours of day reduced to four or so minutes. I think it’s nice.

(Use the HD button when you play the movie if you have the bandwidth. Note that the HD button only appears after the movies begin playing. Also, I believe it always fully buffers before playing.)

The second one was started in the late afternoon because the sky looked ripe. I think it’s a great movie, but every direction other than the one I chose to point my camera was spectacular — full of pretty clouds burning red. I think the angle and the speed the clouds travel make this movie.

I should mention that both these movies were made from the top of our shipping/storage container-in heavy winds. I am terrified of losing another camera due to the wind; however, I hate to do nothing when beautiful things are begging to be captured. I now have a ten pound weight I attach to the tripod with a stretch cord. So far so good.
