Awesome work, Murray!

Sumptuous sequences Muz

You have a great vision Hector Love it

Amazing :-)!

Nice work :)

cool

i admire your work

You should contact IMAX to have them show your material. Simply incredible.

that's beautiful! what type of polarizer did you use?

You're better than the weather man ;-)
Mighty stuff

great work, I want my movies about people generate the same emotions as when you view your amazing video, thank you

Beautiful, what camera did you use for most of your shots Murray?

Magical.

Amazing like always, I´m not a big fan of cloud TLs, I find them boring, but this are truly amazing.
Congs.

Incredible. Mesmerising...

This is so cool

I think I know what I'll next abuse my camera for :)
edit: Regarding the sea surface, did you ever try to use a longer shutter speed (2s or so)? I wonder if this might look interesting :)

amazing!

Beautiful work. I wonder if you would mind posting some of the technical details: lens, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, filters, etc.

Watching them rain at around the minute mark is amazing. What a perspective.

Clearly you've got your head in the clouds as much as I do... bit.ly/gEy2lR

Best time lapse cloudscapes I've ever seen. By far.

when i look at your work i can't help but think of spanish surrealism. in particular salvador dali. the way he would paint psychological landscapes of the mind. this piece definitely gives me that impression. i'm inspired murray.

awesome

“All the clouds are burning”

All the clouds are burning
Because I found you,
God desiring and desired;
Tall purple torches
(scarlet, blue, red, yellow)
In a high scream of the sound of light
They all come from the round horizon
In shining congregation,
To embrace each other with a return of hope
To my answered faith.
(Abandoned sea with god
In rounded consciousness
Speaking and singing to me,
Who trusts me and reassures me:
I pass over you with a vigilant
Foot placed on myself,
Agreeing that my journey
Follows the man pursued who waits for me
At a permanent port of arrival,
Of repeated encounters.)
All the clouds that were,
That are, that will be,
Surround me with signs;
They are to me
The high affirmation of this deep
Depth of air within which I live;
The true climb of climbing,
The climb of the discovery made in the highest depth

Juan Ramón Jiménez, ‘Animal at Bottom’, from the book ‘God Desired and Desiring’ (trans. Antonio de Nicolas).

'The Cloud', by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers,
From the seas and the streams;
I bear light shade for the leaves when laid
In their noonday dreams.
From my wings are shaken the dews that waken
The sweet buds every one,
When rocked to rest on their mother's breast,
As she dances about the sun.
I wield the flail of the lashing hail,
And whiten the green plains under,
And then again I dissolve it in rain,
And laugh as I pass in thunder.
I sift the snow on the mountains below,
And their great pines groan aghast;
And all the night 'tis my pillow white,
While I sleep in the arms of the blast.
Sublime on the towers of my skiey bowers,
Lightning, my pilot, sits;
In a cavern under is fettered the thunder,
It struggles and howls at fits;
Over earth and ocean, with gentle motion,
This pilot is guiding me,
Lured by the love of the genii that move
In the depths of the purple sea;
Over the rills, and the crags, and the hills,
Over the lakes and the plains,
Wherever he dream, under mountain or stream,
The Spirit he loves remains;
And I all the while bask in Heaven's blue smile,
Whilst he is dissolving in rains.
The sanguine Sunrise, with his meteor eyes,
And his burning plumes outspread,
Leaps on the back of my sailing rack,
When the morning star shines dead;
As on the jag of a mountain crag,
Which an earthquake rocks and swings,
An eagle alit one moment may sit
In the light of its golden wings.
And when Sunset may breathe, from the lit sea beneath,
Its ardors of rest and of love,
And the crimson pall of eve may fall
From the depth of Heaven above,
With wings folded I rest, on mine aery nest,
As still as a brooding dove.
That orbed maiden with white fire laden,
Whom mortals call the Moon,
Glides glimmering o'er my fleece-like floor,
By the midnight breezes strewn;
And wherever the beat of her unseen feet,
Which only the angels hear,
May have broken the woof of my tent's thin roof,
The stars peep behind her and peer;
And I laugh to see them whirl and flee,
Like a swarm of golden bees,
When I widen the rent in my wind-built tent,
Till the calm rivers, lakes, and seas,
Like strips of the sky fallen through me on high,
Are each paved with the moon and these.
I bind the Sun's throne with a burning zone,
And the Moon's with a girdle of pearl;
The volcanoes are dim, and the stars reel and swim
When the whirlwinds my banner unfurl.
From cape to cape, with a bridge-like shape,
Over a torrent sea,
Sunbeam-proof, I hang like a roof,--
The mountains its columns be.
The triumphal arch through which I march
With hurricane, fire, and snow,
When the Powers of the air are chained to my chair,
Is the million-colored bow;
The sphere-fire above its soft colors wove,
While the moist Earth was laughing below.
I am the daughter of Earth and Water,
And the nursling of the Sky;
I pass through the pores of the ocean and shores;
I change, but I cannot die.
For after the rain when with never a stain
The pavilion of Heaven is bare,
And the winds and sunbeams with their convex gleams
Build up the blue dome of air,
I silently laugh at my own cenotaph,
And out of the caverns of rain,
Like a child from the womb, like a ghost from the tomb,
I arise and unbuild it again.

Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

Extreme...

I'm jealous. No birds, no flicker, sharp edges... Good job.

Wonderful!

Thank you very much for these stunning moving pictures. ! .

Beautiful Nature~

Amazing

Simply Intoxicating -

May I ask . . .? Are these clips shown in chronological order

Fantastic cloudscapes. Amazing work.

soooooooooooooo niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Great work!!! Love it!

I hope, one day I can make something this beautiful.

Awesome shot of the clouds changing and growing. Nicely done.

The whole thing is lovely, but the sunset at the very end is truly spectacular! Wow.

Really beautiful, just the right pace. I also love how you give each clip room to breath while sustaining enough movement to keep one expectant.

Thanks!

Hi, looks and sounds great!
Id like to ask if its edited with 1 layer / time playing or is it partly multilayers of the sky?

Beautiful, beautiful stuff, Murray!

You can't have a thunderstorm without lightning, and here's some phenomenal lightning I captured.
(Maybe I'll start a lightning project?)

Hope you can check it out! Thanks!
