Swirling Vortex Above Rocky Peaks

A wide spiral vortex occupies the center of the sky, ringed by dense rotating cloud bands in deep blue and violet. Jagged mountain peaks rise in the lower third of the frame, their silhouettes sharp against the glowing storm above. The vortex rotates steadily as its inner layers brighten and shift, while the mountain outlines remain fixed throughout. The 3840×2160 loop runs for exactly 38.27 seconds.
