Unordinary WorldPosted by admin on July 29th, 2008

This summer Nebraska has had some spectacular boomers. This was an image I actually captured in early June as one rolled through. I drove up to Herman, Nebraska in order to capture what I though was the most intense part of the storm (from a distance) only to find out that it had been pretty intense in Omaha. This image was taken after the “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” photograph previously. I will post one more photo from this evening.

Technical Details:
Canon 5d, 17-40 f/4l @ 19mm, f/13, 4 sec., 2-stop hard ND Grad

Somewhere Over the Rainbow…Posted by admin on July 23rd, 2008

One thing that Nebraska has had this year is some spectacular storms. This has led to some pretty awesome sunsets. This evening I traveled north to Herman, Nebraska as this was the path of the storm, not knowing it was going to hit Omaha equally as hard. I witnessed this rainbow, and you can make out a bit of the double rainbow, right after the hard rain.

Technical Details:
Canon 5d, 17-40 f/4l @ 18mm, f/14, 1 sec.

Family DinnerPosted by admin on July 21st, 2008

The other night I visited DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge in order to capture some blooming lily pads on Wood Duck pond. I cam across this family of deer feasting on a field in the refuge and stoped to capture them.

Spring WarmthPosted by admin on May 19th, 2008

Yesterday evening I went hiking in Platte River State Park to explore the eastern side which is mainly used for horseback riding and mountain biking. I had never walked this section, but enjoyed the peacefulness of my surroundings. As the sun began to set, the rays came through the forest and I stopped to capture this image along my journey.

Quiet FieldPosted by admin on May 9th, 2008

On Wednesday evening I decided to try and find the most western area of DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge on the western side of the Missouri River. This area is only open from the middle of April until the end of May for mushroom hunting and bow turkey hunting. There are no roads through this section, so you have to hike through this area. After hiking in over a mile I found this run-down shed on the edge of a field. I waited for just after sunset to capture this photograph. I used 2 captures and blended the results for the final image.
