It's not storm season so I console myself by working through my digital photo archives. This stunning supercell is from the Texas Panhandle in June 2014.

Finally got to the Horseshoe Bend on the Colorado River near Page, AZ in August. The scale of the scene is incredible! Notice the tiny kayaks on the river. 3 vertical image exposure bracketed panorama.

Yes, I do have a life outside of weather and photography! Harvesting yellow corn on my brother-in-laws farm in Nebraska.

Another aurora borealis capture from the Oct 10-11 display in the dark skies of western Kansas. No complicated foreground with this one. Just the magnificent sky.

No. It's heading away now. Closest point was a couple of weeks ago. So no dinosaurs need to panic...😉

A capture of Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS from last evening (10/23). 20 images at 200mm stacked for detail noise reduction.

Single image capture of Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS with the Milly Way in the dark skies at Monument Rocks National Natural Landmark. Easily visible to the unaided eye and stunning in binoculars.

One of my all time favorite supercells. The structure and the colors are almost overwhelming. Captured along the I-70 corridor near Genoa, CO in 2018.

My favorite tornado photograph? Depends on criteria. But in terms of the landscape and colors this one from May 2016 near Wray, CO is surely near the top
