Storm front approaches Lorne Pier near sunset.
As the storm appeared as I was driving back from another photoshoot, I jumped out of my car to quickly grab this image, handheld. Because of that, I hadn't yet set up my tripod or added my ND filters. I did do this about 5 mins later, however I still preferred one of these original images when the storm front was at its most intense.
f/11 1/30 sec ISO 500
Nikon Z8 with 24-70mm lens, at 29mm
Edited in Lightroom to bring down the highlights of the sky and improve overall contrast and blue saturation in the calibration panel. Image then processed through Radiant Photo to brighten and further refine contrast and add sharpening.
