The Storm

These were taken tonight of a thunderstorm system moving in from the east. It was taken at dusk/sunset which is from ~8:00pm to ~9:00pm. These are the 19 pictures I liked out of the 150 pictures I took. Very slight photoshop adjustments with brightness/contrast/blending. This series I am calling it:

***NOTE: Not all problems were fixed in the pictures, there are still specks from the lens that would need to be cleaned before final pictures would be available for backgrounds. If you wish to have one, please let me know and I will fix it completly and save it as a larger scale for you.

Those are some awesome pics man!

Thanks guys. That was by far my favorite photo shoot yet. I'm looking at getting a macro lens soon because I love detail shots and getting in close.
