It’s often true that if you find your own niche you will have more success than if you try to be a jack of all trades. Getting known for doing one thing particularly well works wonders for your marketability. Photography offers a wide variety of fields to get into. Some areas though are more dangerous, and the results more dramatic, than others. Check out these storm photographs from ExtremeInstability

I started out as a storm chaser, with no plans or desire to shoot still images. My thing was just video taping storms with a cheap camcorder. I soon saw a few cool skies and realized I needed something better to show the images on my site. So I had to buy a still camera, a Sony F707 in July of 2002. I only briefly had a still camera in my past. I had a film rebel for a couple months back in 96 or so. I shot maybe 4 rolls with it before I traded my sister for her video camera.

The results are fascinating. I can’t decide if he is nuts or extremely brave … perhaps a bit of both. For anyone who really enjoys the photographs several desktop wallpapers have been made available, here are thumbnails of some of my favourites.

Do explore the site, it is brilliant stuff.
