7-27-15

Well after talking to other photographers, I have decided to take my photography to a higher level. This past weekend I decided to sign up for Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. The Lightroom program is likely the most powerful photo editing software available, so I wanted to take my photos to the next level. my goal is provide a more clearer and sharper photo, and to show the actual scene that my eyes witnessed. My Canon T5i does an awesome job, but still the camera just cannot capture the actual view. So hopefully everyone will enjoy this improvement with my addition of Adobe Lightroom. Enjoy!!

Sunrise under the Sea Oats

While visiting Myrtle Beach, SC I took a trip to Garden City Beach, SC to checkout a very private beach! The beach is located at the very end of Garden Ciry Beach and can onlybe accessed during low tide!

Wall cloud 7/15/15

The second week of July 2015 brought stormy conditions to Central Virginia! The week brought 2 straight days of storms producing wall clouds, and this very rare conditions for these parts of Virginia! No tornados touched down but quite a few small funnel clouds! 
Wall Cloud East of Appomattox, Va

This shelf cloud was part of the same storm for 7/15/15 and this photo is from just east of the Lynchburgm, Va city line!

This wall cloud was from 7/14/15 near Liberty University and River Ridge Mall!  This storm was on the northeast side of Lynchburg, Va and if a tornado had dropped down it would have likely caused much damage!

Shelf Cloud

Shelf Cloud
Beautiful shelf cloud from Lynchburg, Virginia! I chased this storm on 7-6-15 for about 30 minutes! No damage from this storm but a classic shelf cloud!
