Tempestuous Beauty of Arizona Captured in Ethereal Time-Lapse Video

Few have experienced the unique landscape of Jurassic-era petrified sandstone in Arizona’s remote White Pocket. A sublime, ever-changing sky flies over the stunning terrain in a new time-lapse video by Gavin Heffernan and Harun Mehmedinović.

To film their latest time-lapse masterpiece, Gavin Heffernan and Harun Mehmedinović traveled the often-impassable sand roads to Arizona’s White Pocket. Due to the difficulty of reaching it, relatively few visitors have experienced this unique landscape of Jurassic-era petrified sandstone. More frequently visited, but nonetheless spectacular in this artful time-lapse, are the rust-colored rock faces of Vermilion Cliffs National Monument.
