  • Monsoon season is here!

    I was making a time lapse video of a growing storm cloud, when a wall of dust started to form on the horizon. The first 11 seconds of the video are a time laps of the haboob moving in, the rest is regular video footage.

  • Last Nights Light Show

    Last night I set out to take pictures of some fireworks for the 4th of July celebration. Once the sun finally set however, I found myself turning my camera towards a much more spectacular light show brought on by mother nature.

    I took this image at Skyventure Arizona, a facility designed for skydivers to practice free-fall maneuvers. Canon 7D / Lens 18-55 / Manual Mode / Exposure time 20 seconds / ISO 200 / F3.5 / WB Fluorescent
