- Born in London, I've lived in The Netherlands, New York, and Washington DC. Now I've settled down in Colorado and love taking pictures. Unless otherwise stated, all pictures are taken by me with my Nikon D40X. I do almost no photo editing - occasionally I will crop or remove a dust spot, but that's all. What comes out of the camera is what you see here.

Awesome captures, Al! And what gorgeous and dramatic skies! Isn't it exciting when we can capture skies like these? Your lightning shots are incredible! Hope you have a great day!

The clouds and light are amazing! The second photo looks like it could be the cover of a thriller novel. You sure do get a lot of different weather out there!
Wow...amazing pictures....great sky spectacle...it's sooo lovely...
Greetings Karin
Great photos of skies! I'm just curious how you captured the lighting?

Yes, really strange skies! Same time so wonderful! You are lucky to had observed them! :) And I enjoyed your pictures! :)
By the way.. all my respect for the lightening!! =) Dangerous, but very lovely!
I never tire of your photographs. How do you get the photos of lightening?
Great job!
Looks like the house with the solar panels might be getting a bit more electricity than they bargained for.
I have never yet managed to capture lightening, so I tip my hat to you on that photo.....nice one.
Wow - amazing and beautiful!
Wow, beautiful shots, love both of them!
The lightning, it's just amazing. =)
Beautiful captures, with the first one being my favourite. The way you've captured the rays of sunlight through the clouds is quite special.
I love lightning storms . . . makes the rain seem ok somehow. Awesome pics!
The lightning capture is wonderful.

Wow..just Wow..that lightning is just awesome!
Amazing shots. You are an expert on lightnings.
You take such fantastic storm shots, Al. That sky is a beautiful canvas. Any snow on the ground there now?
Those are some angry skies! Wow!
How dramatic! I feel like that I'm seeing scenes of a film in that landscape, but this is real. Though dark tone, I still think the grayish-blue or purplish sky is beautiful.
what wonderful captures of light, tones and contrasts. Great shots.
Magnificent shots! And these houses are huge too ^_^ Happy weekend!
