Calling Out West (band portraits)

Well hey there stranger! it's been awhile. Anyway, I had a great shoot last week with Calling Out West, a Denver rock band who are preparing to release their EP entitled "Apollo". They have a a show on October 7th. More info here https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=247667018609232.






This was my first shoot with the new lights and triggers, so I'm really happy with the results. I may add a third light here soon. I'm really starting to get into the strobist stuff. I'll try and update this more often.

Destructive Iowa Tornadoes

What can I say. It was an amazing chase, and my first in Iowa! Unfortunately, several towns in Iowa took severe damage. It looks like several of the tornadoes were EF-3 strength. Ill let the images do the talking...

The Mapleton, IA tornado viewed from the south. This tornado destroyed more than 60% of the town. Fortunately no one was killed, despite several injuries. We had no idea the tornado was impacting the town at that time.

EF-2 damage in the town of Early, IA.

8/16/10 Deer Trail and Brush Colorado Tornadoes!

Holy Cow! What a year for tornadoes in Colorado.I Chased with Mark Farnik and Ben Toms today and we scored four tornadoes! Two near Deer Trail and two more 70 miles North, on the South side of Brush. We had a really nice boundary to play with and storms had a chance to produce only a few tornadoes before moving off the NE to SW oriented boundary. Very photogenic tornadoes!
