"Stormy Day" 2020 THEME WINNERS
From a casual unplanned capture, to all out-storm chasing, the weather can affect the mood of an image more than anything else. Uncontrollable wind, clouds and rain, the beautiful powerful elements of life and nature are the subject or backdrop of many of the most amazing images ever captured. Even a hint of that power or just a mild touch of it during a light afternoon shower, has a very dramatic effect on our world's natural light, a light that only nature can produce!

For me... Photographers capture moments to create lasting memories or provoke thought and discussion. They work to make statements with their photos, a poem... a fable.

Tower Strike by Garry Everett
Our Honorable Mention Winner was also submitted by
Garry Everett from West Sacramento, California
My name is Garry Everett and I am a landscape/wildlife photographer currently living in West Sacramento. My interest in photography came later in life and was sparked while travelling on vacation and business to various locations around the USA and abroad. Photography allows me the opportunity to slow down and focus on the remarkable world that surrounds us, this provides a sense of escape from the somewhat hectic and chaotic lives we live today. I particularly find sunrise a very peaceful time of the day as the pressure of our daily lives fade away into the scene before me. It has become a passion through photography to capture and share this peaceful beauty and the sense of awe I experience while trying to create that single unique moment in time. My hope is that you will be inspired to go out and explore this amazing planet we live on.
