February 5 tower lightning composite/animation
In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. 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. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field. |
I thought it would be interesting to do some graphics experiments with the stills from last Tuesday in Lexington. The following image is a Photoshop composite merging all eight 35mm frames. Despite the merge resulting in a loss in luminosity/contrast of the individual lightning channels, this gives an idea of what the scene might have looked like if I had been able to do a single 20-minute exposure of all eight strikes together.
I also assembled Flash animations of these eight stills - here is the slow version and the fast version.
