A very well put together video on storm chasing safety by Skip Talbot. Skip is one of the greats on storm chasing and has many tornados under his belt. Read and apply, my save your life someday.

This is what I do for fun and to pass the time. Storm spotting sometimes can be a bust, I monitored these storms till they hit the Georgia Alabama line. So I headed out to shoot the storm, when I arrived to the area I was going to monitor and observe the storm all but fell apart. That's the way it goes sometimes.

Getting a good Milky way shot in Georgia can sometimes be a chore. Sometimes it all comes together, this shot was taken at the Carters regulation lake in Murray County Georgia June 17 2017.

One of the perks of living in a small town are the sunsets.

One of my personal achievements was capturing the Zodiac light from Northern Georgia.

Zodiacal light is a faint, diffuse, and roughly triangular white glow visible in the night sky that appears to extend from the vicinity of the Sun along the ecliptic or zodiac.[1] It is caused by sunlight scattered by space dust in the zodiacal cloud. It is best seen during twilight after sunset in spring and before sunrise in autumn, when the zodiac is at a steep angle to the horizon. However, the glow is so faint that moonlight and/or light pollution outshine it, rendering it invisible.
