• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

I'm finally back from almost 2 months away exploring the monsoon rains & flooding in India and climbing the volcanoes of Indonesia. This marks the end of filming of season two of Angry Planet. Season three has already bee approved and is already in pre-production.

This latest journey was amazing to say the least. I've updated my website with a huge number of pictures. To see everything, the best way is to just go to my Galleries page and look for anything marked as NEW.

Here are the direct links to a few of my favourites:

The monsoon flooding in India - After 200mm of rain fell in Mumbai, I found myself in very deep, very nasty water:

Anyway, there is a whole lot more on my site, way too much to list here. This was just a teaser. Enjoy!

Awesome stuff man! Makes southern Oklahoma seem very boring unless theres a wedge ripping up the countryside.
 
Great photos, George. I especially like that lightning shot. I hope all your vaccinations prevented you from becoming ill after wading in that dirty Indian monsoon water!
