π β‘οΈA sunset bolt captured in the 2018 storm season! This storm wasnβt very powerful but it threw a few bolts and some rain right at sunset which was the first time I captured a sunset bolt! #bigboltmedia βββββββ Photo by: @justin_labadie βββββββ Follow us for storm photos @bigboltmedia #moodygrams #storms #storm_scape #earthpix #nakedplanet #lightningstorm #sunset_hunter #tampabaylightning #canonbringit #canon #canonusa #cloudzdelight #teamcanon #longexposure #roamflorida #cloud_porn #clouds #canonfanphoto #earthfocus #floridaexplored #canonphotos #onlyinflorida #sky_brilliance #florida_greatshots #tempestchasers #stormchaser #primebeachusa
Congrats to @natgeo on 100million IG followers! This is my world! Photography can be full of exciting moments like this moment I captured during the 2018 storm season! Photography has taken me places I never even knew about. My wonders of the world definitely started when i was a kid looking and reading National Geographic magazines well before instagram even existed! #natgeo100contest
This spot had been amazing for shooting sunset reflections! Well I captured the famous @damon_powers shooting the amazing palm tree parking lot shot! Florida can produce some of the most amazing sunsets! If you dig it double tap it! π€π½ _________ @canonusa 5DM4 Canon 24mm-105mm f4 _________ ~ ~ ~ #sunset #sunsetporn #sunset_pics #sunsetlovers #earth_pix #sarasota #sarasota_florida #syrp #pureflorida #lovefl #canon #canonusa #floridaexplored #florida_greatshots #viewmysunset #photographerlife #nakedplanet #earthpix #beach #paradiseπ΄ #moodygrams #cloudzdelight #pureflorida #explore #exploremore #exploretocreate #earthofficial
A Throwback to May of 2017! What fun trip this was with @ch808_shoots and Damon Powers! Milkyway season is almost in full effect and maybe for the rest of Off Storm Season weβll get some awesome shots and go on some cool adventures! This is also the first night I met the infamous Milkyway Master @Hoovisyo!

Storms rolling in from the south! Love when storms get a greenish/blue hue to them!

Had an awesome time road tripping offseason with @damon_powers and @ch808_shoots. We were headed to the everglades when we heard from @stormvisuals that there could be a little off season storm action. We just published another off season adventure episode on our YouTube channel.

Sometimes when the surf is fun on the Gulf coast of Florida we head out and jump off of one of these jetties to catch some waves! This guy was headed out and walked right down the middle which I couldnβt help but capture as the sun was setting. _________ @canonusa 5D Mark IV Canon EF24-105mm F/4L IS II USM _________ 105mm | f/5.6 | ISO 100 | 1/125 _________ ~ ~ #explore #earthfocus #bigboltmedia #sunsets #earthpix #moodygrams #lightningstorm #florida #sarasota_florida #canonbringit #canon #canonusa #canon_official #teamcanon #surfing #surf #roamflorida #hashtagflorida #cloudzdelight #canonfanphoto #earthfocus #floridaexplored #canonphotos #onlyinflorida #sky_brilliance #florida_greatshots #earthoffical #epic_captures #amazing_shots #sunsetlover
THROWBACK to one of my favorite lightning shots i got in the 2018 storm season! This was an incredible night of lightning! I went up to clearwater beach by myself and captured this EPIC cloud to ground and crawler strike combo! There were lots of people on the beach and I heard some gasps and yells! Would you have jumped!?

Looking through my viewfinder and seeing a storm produce lightning and a really gorgeous storm cloud structure is one of the many reasons why I love chasing storms. There is so much depth and beauty in natures fury. This storm was pretty far south of our location at the time but was spitting absolutely beautiful bolts! #bigboltmedia _________ @canonusa 5D Mark IV Canon EF24-105mm F/4L IS II USM _________ 105mm | f/8 | ISO 800 | 30 secs _________ ~ ~ #explore #earth_reflect #earth_shotz #nightphotography #moodygrams #lightningstorm #awesome_earthpix #tampabaylightning #canonbringit #canon #canonusa #canon_official #teamcanon #StrikeFinderPhoto #amazing_shots #roamflorida #night_shotz #staysaltyflorida #awesome_shots #nightskyphotography #floridaexplored #canonphotos #onlyinflorida #earthofficial #florida_greatshots #tempestchasers #stormchaser #sky_brilliance
This year was amazing! I am not going to post a βTop 9β Iβll let you decide which ones are your favorite! Let me tell you though this year was really awesome and I am so thankful to all of you who have and are supporting me on my photographic journeys. What a great year - as my storm chasing family and I started @BigBoltMedia Here is a photo I took while on an adventure with them. We have more coming to our Youtube Channel this year and have been gearing up and working on some new videos! Thanks again and HAPPY NEW YEARS may 2019 kick ass for you!Β Β #bigboltmedia _________ @canonusa 5D Mark IV Canon EF24-105mm F/4L IS II USM _________ 24mm | f/8 | ISO 800 | 30 secs _________ ~ ~ #explore #earth_reflect #earth_shotz #nightphotography #moodygrams #lightningstorm #awesome_earthpix #tampabaylightning #canonbringit #canon #canonusa #canon_official #teamcanon #StrikeFinderPhoto #amazing_shots #roamflorida #night_shotz #staysaltyflorida #awesome_shots #shotzdelight #floridaexplored #canonphotos #onlyinflorida #earthofficial #florida_greatshots #tempestchasers #stormchaser #sky_brilliance
This was a fun all nighter with @damon_powers! We scored soo much lightning in a few different directions. This bolt didnβt make it all the way to the ground but it got pretty close happening! Pretty crazy how far lightning can jump and then not hit somewhere/something.

This was an incredible night of the 2018 season with super intense storms all around us. @ch808_shoots and I shot this cool dock location while the other @bigboltmedia guys were at other locations scoring!
