Clouds and weather have fascinated me ever since I was a child. With the sudden onset of a thunderstorm or the mammatus cloud that dangles from underneath a thunderstorm, I’ve been entranced watching weather patterns.

Weather photography is one field that captures the uniqueness of nature and how it can display its wonderous beauty and chaotic mechanisms for us to enjoy. I hope you’ll see the following weather and cloud photos for what I did.
