On our hike to Pico Birigoyo I had the chance to record this time-lapse video of a spectacular phenomenon – the “falling clouds”. This “Cascada de Nubes” is quite typical for La Palma. When the weather conditions are right the build-up clouds from the east side of the ridge are pressed across the so called “Cumbre Nueva”. The clouds flows over the edge and fall like a waterfall until they mysteriously disappear.

The time-lapse has been recorded with a Fujifilm X-T1 camera. The post-processing has been done with blender.

Clear skies!
