A wicked bad day of severe weather in South Central Nebraska. For more information on that day... NWS Official Report.
A tornadic supercell with an Ef1 or Ef2 tornado struck the city of Kearney late afternoon. The aftermath wasn't pretty. I sure wanted to be out chasing but I was scheduled for work, and missed the entire historic event.
Power was out, but I did have the camera batteries charged. Geared up, with camera in hand after I got home from work. I took a few minutes during clean up that night to capture these incredible cloudscapes that were on the back side of the storms.
These were the final rays, the last light of the day. These clouds were truly some spectacular stormscape captures to end that day of severe weather!

Using a 4 Star Filter to highlight the rising sun and dispersing rainbow colours with the dark green clouds and reflections on the water.
Summer storms trundling up the coast this afternoon resulting in a big contrast range between the sunshine and dark skies offshore.
Most of the thunder and lightning stuff seems to have either passed Sunderland either to the east or west, which is a bit of a shame as I love a good storm!

Ettersgill from Stable Edge, briefly floodlit after a heavy squall had passed over, with the next one approaching in the distance.
We got to Worbarrow Bay by walking from the abandoned village of Tyneham (there is no direct road access to the bay). The water was very calm on this occasion and though the weather was quite mild the clouds sometimes looked a little threatening. I particularly like the sweep of the shoreline and the line of the imposing chalk cliffs.
Dartmoor Ponies on Combeshead Tor. It seemed as if the ponies and I, had the moor to ourselves. A lovely moment in time.
It was a very warm day, a mixture of cloud and sunshine, and the clouds looked to be promising rain. It would have been welcome after the long spell of hot, dry weather - especially for the ponies! .....But the clouds held on to their rain.
I took this photo when I was at a low point in my life. I feel the tone of the photo, especially the clouds, matches my feelings at the time, dark and angry with light trying to push its way through.
May 4th, 2012 - Northern Buffalo County Nebraska US
I Seriously, wasn't going to go out this night... Had a weeks worth of hell, and I really just wanted to do was get off work and go home. I was tired, I was cranky, it was the first weekend I've had off in a Month...
As soon as I pulled into the driveway @home, I could hear the weather radio going off and my storm capturing sensation came over me. Listening to the bullitins coming over the radio and I Freaked!. The storms were closer than I had thought. NWS just put warnings for Northern Buffalo County for super fast development of strong to potentially super severe, with large hail, and possible Tornadoes.
Photography Chance of a lifetime... Even though someone could cast me as a member of the Walking Dead....I was a trooper and I didn't wimp out! Luckily I had the my camera on the charger... Grabbed all my equipment & I hauled A** North... 20 mins later I found myself in the perfect spot, under the perfect conditions!
Cresting over northern Buffalo County, ready to cross between Pleasanton & Ravenna Nebraska, this cell was rapidly building and already had tornado warning on it. Incredible CG lightning in front of the storm cell was just to good to capture, with lighting firing off every few seconds.

After missing out on a couple of fantastic sunsets this week, last night I thought I'd better make an effort to get down to one of our local beaches. Thunder and lightning were rumbling above the cliffs and heading out to sea pretty quickly. I had a small section of sky with some colour so the rush started to find some foreground interest which lead to the colourful area and the setting sun.

SOOC. Intense colors before a storm. Colors saturated in-camera; intentional underexposure to get the colors to stand out.

It's a massive achievement for me...I never thought an amateur could make it to explore!
Sharing Exposures - Decisive Moment
The clouds were drifting away from the sun. At this moment when I could have the most of the sun from the clouds I clicked the picture. I played around a little with the colours to give it the burning blaze and voila!
