Photography F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 01 10:53 pm)
It is sad that lives get destroyed from these natural tragedies, but like most things in life there is usually some positive aspect hiding somehwere. Even though they are foreboding photos, I can't help but admire the power they hold in them. They are truly beautiful in their own way. Thanx for sharing them :)
nice shots Phrank, glad you and yours are ok. Nashvegas got some really nasty storms out of this also. I have a couple of friends in Jackson whose house got major damage but they are ok, that's the important part! My thoughts are with all of those affected all over this part of the country....pray for blue skys....
Yes we are lucky in Yankee Land.... we have Hurricanes instead...... Hoping things stay calm for you Marshall....and those images are amazing!
I am, therefore I create.......

I know it probably sounds like false bravado, but I would LOVE the opportunity to get close to extreme weather for photo's. Having faced danger from the elements a couple of times (1st time when I was 14 in a little 8 foot sailing dinghy with a school mate among 4-5 foot waves.... I know, doesn't sound much, but when the waves are higher than your head and help is a reasonable swim away....you learn REAL fast! Learn not to trust the weather forecast for a start....) I seem to be one of those freaks who actually enjoys it..... though like everyone else send my thoughts to those who have received misery and pain from the elements. However, those clouds are amazing, especially in that last pic. (",)
There is an adrenalin rush, no doubt. Whenever there is a risk to your life, you at least are never board! In clouds like this you never know when a tornado will drop from the sky. Of course, Ive never seen one except via film & video, but if I ever did, Id probably risk my like trying to photograph it.
Good work, personally I like the third. I spent a many a spring afternoon trying to shoot storm skys, when I was a kid. After all, by the time the sky looked like this, the electricity was off, so I didnt have anything better to do. 20 years in Oklahoma and never used the storm cellar.
@ Jordy, my girlfriends sister is paying money to go chase storms in Oklahoma and Kansas in about 2 weeks, shes from Boston and I dont think she knows what she is in for. I was watching the news this A.M., and one of the storys was about a storm hitting More OK. This is part of the same area that was hit a few years ago, when a F-5 tore a 30mile by mile track through OK.
