Departing storm, Shafer Canyon, Canyonlands National Park, Utah, 2006

Stormy weather offers a turbulent atmosphere all of its own. The surging cloudscape in this image seems right out of a 19th Century Hudson River School oil painting. The craggy butte that characterizes this vast national park seems small in comparison to the towering storm cloud engulfing it. I expose for the cloud, letting the foreground strike a dark, foreboding mood.
