Your best ORIGINAL weather shots. Edited shots not welcome!

I tried to get the RAW data from one to load in notepad so I could put it on here but notepad froze. Which sucks cause I was actually quite interested in seeing how it looked in there. Seriously.

I had a class recently where we had to edit jpegs basically by editing the raw code (via computer program you make), have fun!

These are some of my personal best for 2010 with no editing.

Hi. I realize these are no where near good photographs. I just happened to take them with my cell phone.

This one reminded me of someone pointing upstairs... subliminal message?


Nice sunset off the top of a thunderstorm to the south...


And yeah, snow. I live in Chautauqua County, NY. Snow belt central for all you snow junkies. This is my yard on January 4th, 2010. Notice my poor tinman, who hangs about 4 feet off the ground. His toes are cold. Any my patio table... which I obviously didn't take care of this year.

This is probably about as close to a perfect exposure as I will get, just wish it was of something cooler. This is the new area of rotation on the Washington county, KS storm on 4/29. Only thing I did to it was add the watermark.

These were taken the year before I started chasing taken with a non SLR film camera. The north MPX metro superstorm on 9/21/05.

These are stills from my Sony DVR.

5-15-09 Pampa, Tx Supercell

Denver International Airport 6-8-10

Bison, Ok. 5-19-10

That is pretty much the best I got off stills. Nothing to write home about, but I definately need to get a good camera and work on photography along with my videography.

This is my favorite shelf cloud pic of all time. I guess I'm a bit of a purist, but I have never used post processing on any of my photos. It's just a personal choice.

IMO, simply choosing to shoot slide film, or deciding what RAW converter setting to use is, in effect, 'editing' the image.

At any rate....

Plain Vanilla RAW conversion, with all the settings at 'neutral.'

Seriously? Thats a response I would expect from some like 42yr old fully technical lingo guru on some photography specific forum who takes everything on the internet too serious and lives at home with his mom. Not someone like you. Theres no need to nitpick.

Im sure you're fully aware that I was talking about editing in a program such as photoshop. Also if people dont know that their camera finalizes a picture by the settings they have in their camera they shouldnt be using it.

Having a program like PS at your finger tips makes a less than mediocre photographer look exceptionally good. It doesnt matter if they shoot in auto or manual or what the camera does. If you dont know how to shoot what you're looking at the pics arent going to come out worth a hoot.

The thread was simply made for fun and to enjoy peoples work and nature.

P.S. - If you do want to nitpick my words, I do also have in the first post "straight off your camera".

New Year's Day 2008 brought very cold weather to Middle Tennessee. I saw an orange glow on the horizon and followed it. I was passed by the fire department and sheriff's deputies. A house was in flames and fully involved. I found out that the elderly woman who lived there credited her pet mule for waking her up and saving her life. The next day I went back and got a photo of the mule. Here's the story.

I rarely ever do still photography and when I do I normally keep the shots to my self as I'm not that good of photog but here are just a few of my better weather related shots.

I also don't own my own digital still equipment as I invested all my money into video equipment so when I do take stills it is when I'm using a friend's DSLR or when I am shooting on my old Nikon 35mm SLR.

Ooooooooooookay.

Speaking of pics... you have some really nice ones on your site. When you replied that was the first I seen the link so I checked it out. Good stuff man!

Thanks, man! Hope to get some new stuff up soon; processing the Vortex 2 stuff is taking forever and a day.

Not quite as dramatic as the cool lightning/meso pics... but I was in Grand Teton National Park just days before the June 17th outbreak (so I forgot I even HAD these types of pictures!) and got a fantastic sun halo picture.
