- I've been busy and also admittedly away from this side of social media, but I'm hoping to fix that in 2026. However, here's to the past 365 days and all the photogenic adventures I experienced! Happy New Year everyone! #photography
- Auroras from a few weeks ago in Wyoming! By far the most vibrant reds I’ve ever seen. It almost felt wrong how saturated this image rendered out as. What a moment. ✨ #photography #landscapephotography #auroras #northernlights #wyoming #sonyalpha

- I recently returned to Maroon Bells, and although I didn't get a spot for sunrise, the afternoon clouds made up for it. 🏔️
- Sikeston, MO 5/16/2025. One of three tornados we saw this day 🌪️
- Some reflections from Oxbow Bend. 🍂
- A year ago yesterday (thanks @donkeydownburst.bsky.social for reminding me), Colin and I found ourselves gobbling up some Jet's pizza along the shoreline of the UP of Michigan. Our original intent of the trip was to photograph fall colors, but the night skies definitely stole the show. What a night.

- Found a furry friend while exploring Maroon Bells this weekend. 🦊
- The San Juans are unreal right now. 🍂
- One of the many shots I took today while exploring the Tetons for the first time!
- Yesterday morning, I found this tree in a small valley surrounded by mist. When shooting low, the bokeh was some of the coolest I’ve ever photographed. 🌲
- One of my favorite shots from Glacier last year. ⛰️ #photography #landscapephotography #nature #sonyalpha
- Managed to score some auroras over Sundance Mountain in RMNP this evening. What a sight this was after originally only aiming for a sunset hike! #colorado #photography #aurora #northernlights #borealis #landscape #landscapephotography #sonyalpha #rmnp
- Some mammatus for your Sunday. ☁️
- Managed to score one bolt at Great Sands last week while chasing some lowkey storms. If this is the last storm photo of 2025 for me, I'm happy to end it on this note. What a moment! #photography #storm #colorado #sanddunes #greatsands #nationalpark #lightning #landscapephotography #nature
- A lil back of camera action from yesterday in southern Colorado 🏜️ #photography #dunes #landscapephotography #landscape #nature #sonyalpha
- Took a trip up to Wyoming yesterday and photographed Lake Marie for a few hours. What a fun spot! 🏔️ #wyoming #photography #mountain #landscapephotography #lake #nature #photo
- Some little flowers in front of a not so little mountain. Can't wait to get back to RMNP this weekend! ⛰️ #photography #landscapes #nature #landscapephotography #nature #mountains #rockies #photo #sonyalpha
- Took the short drive from my new home down to RMNP and was welcomed with quite the sunset! It still feels surreal to be an hour away from views like this now. I'll be back quite often I assume... ⛰️ #photography #landscapephotography #colorado #rockymountains #rmnp #sunset #nature
- A lot of chasers will remember 6/15/25 as Wellfleet’s day. However, there was also this tornado in Minnesota that same afternoon! I like to call it The Lost Tornado. 📌 Motley, Minnesota
- I’ve been a bit quiet here for the past week or so because… I’ve been packing! Officially on the road to Colorado! Exciting times ahead! 🏔️
- MY TOP 10 FROM WISCONSIN: Number 10 // Taken near Rib Mountain in 2018, this was actually a consolation prize after we had attempted to chase some nearby storms earlier in the day. One of the first shots I ever took that I felt like “I got it”.
- Distant views of Shiprock while exploring New Mexico. ☀️ #photography #landscapephotography #nature #newmexico #photo #art #sonyalpha
- I’ve been chasing storms for nearly a decade now, and yet after all this time, I still hadn’t seen a tornado in Wisconsin. Knowing my time here is coming to an end, I wanted to take the gloves off and leave it all out there for one final Cheese State chase. This is what I captured.
- Two more weeks until this is home.
- Somehow, I managed to already craft a quick video from today’s tornado intercept near Sauk City. One of the closest encounters with a tornado I’ve ever had. Hope you find it as wild as I do! #wiwx #tornado www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfEu...
- Reminiscing on the Bentonites. What a remarkably unique place that honestly makes you feel like you're on another planet. Maybe... Mars? #photography #landscapephotography #utah #landscape #nature #mars #photo #art #naturephotography
- A lonely tree watches over Bryce Canyon in Utah. This national park will forever be one of my favorites. ☀️ #photography #landscapephotography #utah #brycecanyon #landscape #nature #naturephotography #photo
- It’s a good chase when you don’t have many hindsights on the day. Taken near Spiritwood, North Dakota. 6/20/2025 #photography #stormchasing #tornado #storm #landacapephotography #nature #photo
- September skies combined with flowery foregrounds are hard to beat. 🌻 #photography #sunset #wisconsin #sunflower #landscapephotography #photography #nature #photo #flowers
- A simple image from one of my many trips to the Badlands in South Dakota. ☀️ #photography #badlands #landscapephotography #landscape #sunset #southdakota #Dakota #travel #photo
- I’m hopeful for a few more chases in 2025, but as things wind down here soon, I’ve already made peace with the success I’ve had. 20 tornadoes on the season with more photogenic opportunities than ever before. Here’s to a few more columns of air for my camera to capture!
- They might be rare, but they aren’t impossible. This was an anticyclonic tornado I chased last week in North Dakota! 🌪️ #photography #landscapephotography #landscape #nature #stormchasing #tornado #photo
- A shot from Hawaii last year. ☀️ #photography #landscapephotography #hawaii #ocean #landscape #photo
- Reposted by Charlie KruschekGot a few minutes to spare? My first video from the Spiritwood, ND tornado is live over on YouTube! youtu.be/g5DvMiKAQe0?...
- Although our main goal at this point in the chase was structure and lightning, we still managed to notice this tornado off in the distance. Mercifully, the lightning did a good job illuminating the scene. #photography #tornado #supercell #lightning #landscapephotography #landscape #stormchasing
