Settling down after the chase

Filed under: Photography — Mike U @ 2:36 am

Welp, it’s been almost a week now after the chase trip. Once I got back, I almost immediately started on some post-processing work on my D70 SLR photos. I’ll share with you a couple of those shots here on this blog:



I’ll be taking a break from storm chasing for a while, and it’s a good thing the atmosphere is cooperating with such a horrendous summer pattern all of a sudden. My Jeep is still in Clayton, NM. After talking with Brad (of Brad’s Auto Service), he reassured me that Jeepie will be brought back to the way she was before hitting the damn rock, but given the fact that his shop, and the Body shop of Clayton are the only decent auto places in that local region, it’ll be a slow process. Nevertheless, my best friend Jon seems to always be around to help out, and was willing to let me use “Cavvy”, his old vehicle (which is now only used for storm chasing purposes), until Jeepie is back to life.

Other than that, not much is going on… the feedback from my photography seems to be growing every day, it’s great! My photo “Dakota Derecho” (the 3rd one I posted above) was a hit on photoSIG, as it hit the Number 1 position on the Featured Photos section on the front page for sometime last evening. I thought this was pretty cool, considering some of the photographers and the overwhelming popularity of the website.
