    I've done a bit of storm chasing myself over the years Love some of those shots you've got there. I always sucked at catching lightning ^_^ Well done The turbulence underneath those first few shots is amazing.

    Here's a few of my own you may appreciate

    I do it, except i dont have a HD video camera

    I hope I don't sound stupid or whatever but what exactly is a storm spotter with the weather bureau? Like are you one of their employees and they pay you to take photos or is this just a volunteer hobby type thing?
