Shoot Right Before or Right After Bad Weather

Some of the most dramatic clouds appear right before or right after a storm, and while everybody else is sitting this one out, this is your chance to make some incredibly dramatic landscape images. A sky full of dark, ominous clouds makes for a really interesting sky, so don’t miss out on this opportunity. Just remember to keep yourself and your equipment as dry and safe as possible (stay away from lightning—it’s just a photo; it’s not worth risking your life over).
