Clouds: Highlights from several thousand pictures of Mt. Timpanogos

 
 
 
 

We have a long-running data collection project going to record images of Mt. Timpanogos, Utah, using a digital camera connected to a computer. So far, we've got about 5,000 images paired with time of day and weather information . The goal is to learn to relight terrain using this information.

The images posted here are just a few I picked out because they look interesting. Based on these images it appears that getting clouds right is more important than we'd originally thought. The color and texture of the clouds adds a lot to the mood in each of the images.

There's an image with the Alexander's Print Shop balloon in it somewhere in the collection. I found it one afternoon but haven't seen it since. When we find it again, I'll post it.
