5 Amazing Photos of Storms


This past summer was a Summer of Storms in the mid west USA, and electrician/amateur photographer Sean Heavey did his part to capture a few of them on film.  Heavey has photographed storms for the last seven years, but his most recent shots are up for a prestigious award by National Geographic.


'I have two storm chasing friends I met through my wife Toni and they've been badgering me to go out with them for that long,' explained Sean.


'I' normally rely on simply being in the right place at the right time for my photography, while I'm out working. But in July I finally decided to do it and thankfully this picture was the result. We don't usually get weather like this out in Montana, it felt like the perfect storm.  The power was awe inspiring.' 


Take a look at the five images below, and then read the full story from the Daily Mail to see the rest.

Tempest Milky Way: a stunning example of time-lapsed photography

Produced by Randy Halverson and shot in central South Dakota, this is a stunning example of time lapsed photography of our Milky Way galaxy with a backdrop of electrical storms in the background.


From the Vimeo page:
"One of the challenges in making this video, was trying to get good storm with stars shots. The opportunity doesn't come along very often, the storm has to be moving the right speed and the lightning can overexpose the long exposures. I had several opportunities this summer to get storm and star shots. In one instance, within a minute of picking up the camera and dolly, 70mph winds hit. One storm was perfect, it came straight towards the setup, then died right before it reached it."
