Black Leopard
This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

Leopard spots and high heels
I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

Nice lightning capture.
oups..... thank you Andrew :)
Wow! Love that glow in the clouds. Great job, Ronan.
Thanks Chris :)
Beautiful picture. How long was your exposure, what did you do in post-processing? Where was it taken?
Hi Arhtur, it was a 6sec exposure, shot from a parking lot in front of the Port Of Miami. Why 6 seconds you might ask, because of the wind. It was extremly windy this day and to keep some structure/texture in my clouds I had to shoot at this speed.
The post processing is mostly a dogde and burn plus 2 curves layers in photoshop.
Ooooo...Powerful.... Exceptional tonal ranges...
Thanks T.B.!
Perfectly captured Lightning :-)
Thank you Rahul!
well captured Ronan!
Thanks Joseph :)
Excellent work
Thank you very much Stuart :)
The only lightning I’ve seen is countless amounts on our weather app, it never actually materialises:) the BBC have been bad at this weather thing for years now haha.
In the US we are lucky, there are plenty of app (super accurate!) giving you real time the last struck plus the evolution (intensity and direction) of the cell. It makes it almost easy to position your self at the good location. Plus during summer time we have tons of thunderstorms ....that helps too!
So one solution for you Stuart would be to plan a trip in South Florida during summer time :)
Haha yes that sounds about perfect:) unfortunately our travels are taking us to the Lake District only this year but perhaps next:)
Wow...I love that you captured the lightning here.
