Storm watching/chases - Six straight days

I have been busy either watching storms come in or going out storm chasing from May 23rd to May 28th, six straight days of footage. Most of the storms came through close to my house so I didn’t have to drive anywhere. There were a couple of storms where I drove to storm watch and I got to chase one storm. With the storm chase, I had to get home quickly because I was getting chased by the storm. Below are the best shots from each day. I hope you like them.

May 24th - southeast of Eunice, Louisiana

May 27th - southeast of Eunice, Louisiana (taken while under my carport)

May 28th - south of Eunice, Louisiana (two lightning strikes a frame apart from each other)

I am currently working on a video highlighting all of the lightning strikes from each day. I have several hours of footage to go through.

I hope you enjoy the pictures. If you haven’t subscribed, please do so. I am going to shut down my social media at the end of June. This website and YouTube will be my only focuses.

Thanks and Peace.

My favorite lightning shots taken - Part 1

By far, my favorite thing to photograph is lightning. When I am able to catch a good bolt or streak, I get excited and I want to photograph more. Here are some of my favorite lightning shots I have been able to catch.

Taken August 21st 2017 during a storm east of my house.

Taken May 01 2016 during a severe thunderstorm right outside my house.

Taken July 11 2014. This was my first and only full moon, stars, and lightning in one shot taken in Branch, La.

Taken September 13 2013 - My first cloud to ground strike shot south of Eunice, La.

Taken August 24 2015. This storm chase lasted around three hours and was shot south of Eunice, La.

I have been trying to capture lightning on and off since 2007 when I was stationed in San Angelo, Texas. I have been an official storm spotter since 2013 when I started storm spotting with Andy Thibodeaux of Cajun Weather Spotters here in southern Louisiana. His Facebook page is right here. If you are in the southern Louisiana area, give Andy a follow. He gives weather updates especially when there is severe weather in the area.

This is the first of many posts of my favorite lightning captures. I hope you like it. If you have any questions, please comment below. If you like my content, please like and subscribe.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend. There is a chance of thunderstorms this weekend. Maybe I can get more lightning. Take care. Peace.

Tornado Warned Storm

Yesterday, we had several tornado warned storms in the area. Down here in southern Louisiana, we don’t get many tornado warned storms and we had quite a few. One of the storms passed by my house and I was able to get some pictures of it.
