Morning rainbow over Charleston (to the west)
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. |
On the way home from the office this morning around 6AM, I noticed that an inbound rain shower from the west, clear skies to the east and imminent sunrise were about to combine to form a rare spectacle over Charleston. Morning rainbows are very infrequent events, appearing in the western skies - resulting in rare photo composition opportunities, opposite the direction of the usual afternoon/evening rainbow. I chose the ridge behind my house for the event, and had a great view.

Ever notice how morning rainbows seem to be much more softer and diffuse due to the increased overnight moisture at low levels? Certainly can't ask for a better start to the day!
