Location
This shot was taken on Daytona Beach Shores, Florida. The day was sunny and bright and then suddenly this ominous cloud rolled in. I grabbed my camera, of course, thinking it would rain soon. The wind blew and this monster went with it , as quickly as it had appeared. And the sun came out. A lot like life!Time
It was mid-afternoon and we had just walked up from the beach to our condo.Lighting
This picture was shot in pure, natural daylight.Equipment
I used my old, trusty Nikon D90. No tripod. There was no time.Inspiration
The dark beauty of this cloud was overwhelming.Editing
I may have worked on the color but not much more.In my camera bag
I traded in my D90 for a D7100. It has lots more gadgets but the quality of the shots are quite comparable. I carry a Nikkor Macro 55mm, 2.8, and a small Sony for quick shots. Also, a Vanguard Tripod and a monopod for tight spots, along with various lens filters, a polarizer, for one.Feedback
Always carry your camera with you. If you don't, you will regret the photos you missed out on.
