Some More Tucson Monsoon Shots

bgarland

Here are few from my Tucson porch last night. I need to get out in the desert to go after some more natural landscape shots.

Nice series Brad. Those first three shots in particular are spectacular skies.
Nice job on these.

alright no fair cloning AZ Highway shots - really great skies - Tucson can have the best sunsets - I used to chase them down back when I was at UofA and Orange Grove Road way way out in the desert -

Thanks for the kudos, it helps keep the student focused on the learning journey.

Here's a lightning shot I captured during last night's storm.

Beautiful skies, Brad! That last lightning shot is a doozie!

bgarland

Here are a few more lightning shots form last night. They turned out a little darker than I wanted. Being off in the distance, I should have opened my aperture up a little more to capture a little more light. Still fun though.

Tis the season for porch entertainment. I plan to keep capturing what I can from this summer's monsoon storms and post them up on this thread. Anyone else from the SW with Monsoon related pics can add them here if they want.

The colors of the sunset are out of this world, Brad! Wow!

Wow Brad - that last one is incredible! Tough enough to capture the showers let alone use them to frame a really nice composition.
Nice job
