Hi everyone

Tried some photography of the weather today - first time ever - am really getting into understanding the weather and hope to do more and more photography of it.

I live in Aberdeenshire and there are spectacular skies here so thought I would start to document.

I would love to start storm chasing but really not much of a clue, so guess lots more reading needed.

Anyway here are my first 3 attempts at photographing the weather, hope you like.......

Hope you like them.

If anyone is in the Aberdeenshire area please let me know, as would love to meet up with others in the area.

Thanks
Kevin

Very nice shots, the first two are quite 'moody'. Like the use of black n white, it make everything seem to stand out more.

Keep it up! :)

Thanks Richie!

I was hoping to get a storm over today but just lots of showers instead!

I see you are in Hornsea - I lived in Patrington just south of you for over 30 years - have to say East Yorkshire is a great place!!

Cheers
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Yes East Yorkshire is a great place, ever thought of moving back :) .

Patrington's still nice, I pass through now and then still.

Keep the phot's coming, looking forward to seeing more. :)

Would the clouds be.....

1. - Cumulonimbus
2. - Stratus
3. - Cumulus or stratocumulus (whats the difference???)

Thanks
Kevin
