The accidental tourist.

The image above is from work so new it does not yet have an official title, hence The Accidental Tourist which I use whenever I cannot place an image in a particular series. For the past couple of months I have ventured out whenever a storm begins to brew, often chasing the storm clouds and looking for some foreground subject matter. Its an exhilarating event, even without making a photograph.

Over the years I have learned that the best images are often at times we would not normally venture out, bad weather, late at night, early in the morning and so on. I am not suggesting that one goes out with a camera during a tornado (although there are those that do), but when the sky begins to bruise in the middle of the day, its often a good time to make a move.
