This video is perfect for sleeping, relaxing or studying. This portion of the Duck River is very shallow and comes to a narrow section which makes for a wonderful spot to relax and listen to the sounds of the river and birds in the surrounding trees.
HARPETH RIVER FOGGY MORNING 4K VIDEO
I was surprised to see fog rising off the river this morning but it set up for an incredibly calming start to the day. This was a cool summer morning in late May. It was supposed to be partly cloudy with a good amount of sun, which made it even more surprising to see the fog along the river as I pulled up. The birds were especially talkative. I'm not sure if it was because of the fog, but the combination of the cool air, talkative birds and babbling of the river made for an beautiful relaxing experience.
The valley below came to life as light filled it.
A WHOLE GREEN WORLD
As light filled the valley below it revealed a whole new world. Rays of light floated across the lush, green trees. A grassy plain with a river running through it, sprang up as if from no where.
It’s incredible how this lush world grew out of the darkness.

POST STORM GLOW
I really like this spot along the The Big Thompson River. The river snakes its way through the middle of the valley leading to some very cool twists and turns.
As I was sitting along the river, a storm rolled through. It didn’t last long, and as it moved through the sky exploded with this amazing orange/yellow color on the clouds. The reflection in the rushing water added to the incredible scene.

Towering clouds over Moraine Park
Towering Clouds
I’m sure there is some smarty pants scientific reason for it, but the clouds in Colorado are amazing. They build to towering heights over the already impossibly tall mountains.
I sat here for hours and watched as the clouds moved, shape shifted and changed color with the sunset.

Narrows of the Harpeth Sunrise Time-Lapse
This was a very fun time-lapse to shoot. It started out pitch black, gave me beautiful colors, dancing fog and ended with cows. Can’t get much better than that.

Blue sky. Pink Clouds.
Blue sky and pink clouds
There’s a lot going on in this picture. The sky is tall and blue. While the lower clouds are bathed in beautiful pink light. The fog is still dancing around in the distance. And in the lower right corner you can see daylight beginning to reveal the Harpeth River.

Shanghai Time-lapse
Shanghai is an amazing city. It’s full of lights, sounds and movement. I thought it would be perfect as a time-lapse subject.
This time-lapse was shot over two days during my trip to Shanghai. Unfortunately my third day of shooting was rained out. Nevertheless I had a great time running around this incredible city trying to capture a fraction of all there is to see.

The Oriental Pearl Tower
The Oriental Pearl Tower
The Oriental Pearl is a beautiful building all of the time but especially at night. The lights add a spaceship like feel like to the needle like building.
There is a very cool Shanghai history museum in the bottom of this building as well.

The Bund, Shanghai, China
I recently went to Shanghai, China for a quick trip. This next set of photos is from that trip, leading up to a time-lapse on Friday.
This is my favorite photo from the trip. Even though it was foggy and you can’t see the other buildings (one being the second tallest building on earth), you still get a great view of the Oriental Pearl tower.
I took this photo from the Bund, which is a very cool part of Shanghai that has a bunch of old colonial style buildings and incredibly fancy shopping. Of the many cool areas of Shanghai I visited, this was my favorite. The view of these buildings, especially lit up at night, is crazy beautiful.
