Happy Valentines Day! It started off very cloudy and foggy, so this time lapse starts around noon and is relatively short. :-) ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phjEQ0_eM5o
Looking south toward Greenbrier Pinnacle in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We are at 1950 feet and the Pinnacle is 4600-4700 feet. Just off to the right of the image is Mt. LeConte. The cabin we stay in is called "Mountain Siesta" and can be rented through Cobbly Nob Rental.

Managed to look down on a young deer grazing in the backyard today. It's possible it's one of the babies we had in the hard last summer but we don't really know. We were on our lower deck, so we were probably only 10-12 feet or so away when I first started filming.

This one is a little different today due to technical difficulties, so the day ends around 2-3 pm or so. I generate the original time lapse at 60 frames per second, so the raw video is about 8-9 minutes long, and way too long for most people to watch. So I time scale those down so they are half that long. But since today's was shorter by default, I've left it at 60 frames per second, so it should be smoother. You tell me. :-)

Allies FTD...Actually, I don't know if this was my 49.0 run or the 48.1. Either way...
I let YouTube "fix" the video (which I won't do again) and now the cones look like they are in a time warp. Thanks YouTube!

It's always about timing. Sometimes the clouds are in the right place at the right time, and sometimes they aren't. In this video, they had already started to move away by the time the sun got to the point to where it would illuminate them. There has to be some magic angle of the sun/cloud/me to make the colors glow like they do. :-)
