Storm over Monterey Bay

Posted by Tracy (La Selva Beach, United States) on 28 March 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This was taken sometime last year, around October. My son & I went out to Fremont Peak to watch a storm come in. At just about sunset the hills suddenly lit up in the most amazing red-orange color...I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off, trying to compose a shot that I liked, while my son was yelling at me to "Get over here quick and see this!!!"
The light was already fading as I took this shot.
The Monterey Bay is in the distance, and the rain is starting, off to the right.
The wind was howling, so I am surprised it is not super blurry!
More than anything I will remember the fun we had experiencing this in person. No photograph can convey the top of the word feeling we had on this beautiful night.

I may not be able to respond to all comments, but I read and appreciate every one of them.

I am currently attending classes at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, in the Photography department.

I hope to someday make photography a full time profession.
