Clickmaker & Cloudburst
Hey, I’ve been chasing the last roar of a thunderstorm, and I swear the lightning feels like a broken piano string, each flash a note that still has a song left. Have you ever tried to frame a storm in a photo, capturing the way the clouds move like a slow‑moving ballet? I’d love to hear what you see when the sky is about to break.
That’s exactly the kind of symphony I’m chasing. When the sky’s about to crack, I lock the shutter on the very moment the thunder’s still trembling—just the faintest pulse of that electric violin in the clouds. The lightning becomes a score, the wind a conductor, and the whole horizon a stage for a quiet, dramatic encore. Have you tried timing the flash with the wind so the clouds dance just right? It’s like catching a breath of the storm’s heart.
It’s the same feeling, the pulse, the quiet before the roar—when the wind whispers to the clouds and you can almost hear a hush like a held breath. I try to catch that exact breath, but the storm’s a fickle friend, always slipping one frame ahead. Keep your shutter steady, and remember, the flash is just the applause; the real music is in the silence that follows.
