@MarinScott_DPU I’ll share for some $ since I spend a lot of $ getting here and back etc. Message me if you’re still interested.

Tornado near Center, North Dakota just northwest of Bismarck yesterday evening. #NDwx #tornado #weather

Tornado just north of Bismarck, North Dakota around 10:30 pm 6/28 #ndwx #tornado #weather #NorthDakota

@Astro_Grahame @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Thanks I appreciate it!

@TravisNickey @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger What a shot, nice one!!!!

5/25 - The closest bolt I’ve been able to capture on camera. Right place at the right time with the right camera settings and gear. Feeling lucky and charged up ⚡️ Haskell, Texas. #txwx #weather #weatherchannel #nikon #miops

@OreboundImages @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Thank you!

@TravisNickey @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger So good!

@marcusreynold19 @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Thanks, much appreciated! ⚡️

@TravisNickey @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger This might be one of the best bolts I've ever seen captured

@ShaneMuckey @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Ahh dang! Yeah it ramped up really quickly didn’t it?? Those bolts got very intense and landing in all directions around me, this one right in front. Appreciate it!

@TravisNickey @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger I was 15 minutes late, those were the scariest bolts i ever seen. I caught tail end, but not the super structure. THIS SHOT IS EPIC BRO!!!!💪💪💪

@ShaneMuckey Thank you it sure was an epic lightning display!

Epic!!!!!

@diftone @SirlinJohn @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Thanks I appreciate it! I had my settings slightly underexposed on purpose, but also, never anticipated a bolt like this to land right in front of me. What a show of lightning there for a while!

@TravisNickey @SirlinJohn @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Nice focused and well-exposed shot. I love the very clear upward leaders. I was on the same storm, but in haste, I got my setting wrong. Got a couple CGs but nothing close to this. Nice work.

@JAtanackov I couldn’t believe it when I looked at the camera! The bolt was scary close though haha.

Bucket list shot! Look at those upward streamers!

@JVP_wx @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Plenty more to come, especially for us high plains chasers 😊 ⚡️

@TravisNickey @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Save some for the rest of us!

@fire_starter457 @Becca_Furnish @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Thanks I appreciate it!

@TravisNickey @Becca_Furnish @NikonUSA @MiopsTrigger Beautiful catch and some great upward leaders!!

@PezexWeather Yeah absolutely!

@TravisNickey That’s pretty cool!

Well that was close ⚡️ shot at 15mm and then zoomed in to see the landing point. This evening north of Leuders, Texas. #txwx #lightning #nikon

@JVP_wx Still so many bolts to happen this year especially with monsoon later on. I was using the Miops smart +

@TravisNickey Certainly a lightning photo of the year contender! What lightning trigger did you use if you had one?

@enchanted_wx Thank you thank you

@TravisNickey I’ve never seen that many upward streamers. What a sick catch Travis!

@Val_Italo @oldscarf1stweek Yeah pretty wild to see it!

@TravisNickey @oldscarf1stweek Those streamers!!!

@JVP_wx Man it really was! I’ll have to get to the picture soon, haven’t edited anything in a while

@TravisNickey Insane bro!

@PezexWeather I was using a miops lightning trigger which helped to capture this photo!

@TravisNickey I might be dumb but I never understand how anyone gets these insane lightning shots... do you just video and go back and find the frame it happened on or do you jus take a bunch of pictures/second?

@objtormentas Yeah a little too close for comfort, but glad I got the shot at least!

@TravisNickey This is crazy!!
