Sunset bust, March 25
I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. This page is a detailed account of the biggest threat to my photography and video operation that I had to battle daily to just barely survive, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem facing all of my colleagues as well. |
It's been a couple of months since my last trip downtown to shoot photos, so I've been anxious to have a good reason to make another one. This evening, a cloud deck moving over the area ended just west of the metro, a typical setup for good sunset colors (as the sun nears and crosses the horizon, it will illuminate the clouds from underneath.) Tonight however, some of the clouds moved far enough to the west to block the sun at the critical time, resulting in a 'sunset bust'. The weather was perfect for a walk outside, regardless.
