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. |
Just to keep the gap between blog posts from getting too long, here are some shots from Pittsburgh back in June. These first two are from the National Aviary.

Not much else going on to talk about. Hurricane Ike is a non-issue for me at the moment, landfalling way too far away to make a business chase profitable nor a leisure chase affordable. As always, there is a slim chance that I'll get a call back for a paid coverage gig, but I'm not holding my breath. With landfall likely during the day on a Saturday just a few hours from Oklahoma, it's going to be a storm chaser bonanza. Other than Ike, the US weather is as boring as it gets - typical for late summer. Some storms are in the forecast here tonight and tomorrow, but it's doubtful we'll see much. I still have not made my New River Gorge trip due to persistent clouds. I'm actually thinking of doing some aerials of the gorge and the bridge if I can get a clear day in the next couple of weeks.
