Storm Photography in the Sierra Nevada Mountains

Passing Storm

Stills of the Storms in the Feather River Canyon

We have had some great storms this Fall in Northern California. I spend quite a bit of time chasing the storms to shoot time-lapses for stock. It takes at least 45 minutes for a time-lapse to shoot, so I grabbed a few stills while I waited. These images were shot in the Feather River Canyon which is a very photogenic location on good weather days, but I think it is at it’s best when a storm is passing through.
