​Unbelievable.

The time-lapse sequence below goes from about 5 pm until almost 8:30 pm.​

Blue moon

Here's a time-lapse of the so-called "blue moon" - the second full moon of August 2012 - setting on the morning of 1 September.​

Sunset - Mt. Meeker & Long's Peak

Sunset on 28 Aug 2012.  With no strong flow aloft, clouds linger and slowly drift.​

Sunrise - Mt. Meeker & Long's Peak

​An overcast morning over the Continental Divide suddenly turns spectacular [about 7 seconds into the video] in this time-lapse sequence from the morning of 30 August 2012.

Just another sunset

This one lingered for quite a while.​

Sunset - 23 Aug 2012.

More still photos from this vantage point here, and some video clips, including one from this evening, here.​
