Post Storm

Why all the storm images? Good question, with my images in Hot Shops the month of May it’s given me a chance to spend quality time with people like you who follow my work. What’s really awesome about people like you who follow my work is how smart and passionate you are about art. The last 3 images posted on the blog are not showcased in the Hot Shops and I’m hearing about it. So I’m listening to you and showcasing images you like.

Clouds make or break a Image for me. The sky is a Landscape Photographers lightsource so it’s pretty important to pay attention above. Nerbraska skies offers some of the most incredible clouds and color. This Image was taken in 2011 off 181stish and 370 in Nebraska.  

Here is my formula when hunting for a shot.

1. Sky

2. Light

3. Subject

4. Composition

5. Is it safe for me or nature

I don’t enter many photography contests because it’s not cool to ask you to vote for me. The National Geographic photo contest is another story. If you like this Image please go here and like or tweet it. Thanks!!!

Storm Upon

A nice little find off highway 6 west of Atlantic, Iowa. The pre-storm colors create a beautiful story here. Photgraphing in the midwest offers so much diversity with colors from seasons, storms and humidity.

Jackson Wyoming

Omaha Nebraska Photographer Scott Papek traveled to Jackson Wyoming to capture this image

This Image was taken last year in Jackson Hole Wyoming. No tricks, if you wait patiently for the light it does the work for you.
