Oh I’m on vacation, need a nap, don’t want to be on the computer too much, but I took a couple of shots of some severe weather in the midwest as we twisted and turned in the air to avoid all of it.
No matter what I see on the ground…there is something so majestic about flying close to a towering thunderstorm. It’s hard to compete with that. If someone gave me the power to fly, I think that would be the first thing I’d do. Find me a storm and fly alongside it.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!


Love the shots Mike especially the first one!
That first shot is crazy awesome with the lighting and big billowy clouds. Just spectacular stuff there!
Stunning tones and form! Love these, Mike!
You too Mike! Enjoy your vacation.
Those are both amazing. I captured my own clouds-from-airplane-window shot this week, but nothing as spectacular as yours.
Most excellent! (with apologies for an unhelpful comment).
Those are some awesome shots from a plane window! Hope those storms prove productive for you this weekend!
Crazy cool Mike!
Amazing shots! Wow!!
Man I love your stormy shots. You can be as cranky as you want, just keep sharing the amazing work
Thanks so much everyone! I got lucky sitting on that side of the plane and having a slightly cleaner window
Great shots Mike, that first one is sick the way the suns rays are coming through.
wow those clouds are just awesome!!
How did I miss these? They look awesome man, I love the choice to go B&W
