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. |
The eastern USA enjoyed a total lunar eclipse on Saturday evening. The eclipse started after 6:00PM and lasted until after 10:00PM. The moon turned a deep orange-red color during totality at 8:06PM EST (right). Skies over most of West Virginia were clear, allowing for an easy view of the event. I was blessed to be able to film the eclipse from the comfort of my living room on this cold November evening.
