Best part about a road trip during storm season, it can quickly become a storm chase!
While driving from Bundaberg to Miles, we stopped in at Nanango for a car photo shoot for Just Auto Magazine.
We managed to sneak the shoot in before a huge storm hit Nanango, the approaching storm was featured in the background of some really cool rolling car shots.
(Which will be coming in the future on our pages, website and Just Autos Magazine)
After leaving Nanango in the nick of time, we noticed there were multiple cells popping up all around us while we were taking the back roads to Miles.
Of course, our Photographer/Storm chaser instincts took over and we ended up taking some detours, which added a whole bunch of time on the trip and ended up at Durong.
By this point we had got ahead of a big storm cell and set up this composition on the side of the road and began rattling off exposures in hopes of some bolts.
Well out of hundreds of images, this was the one big bolt that happened in front of us!
We were stoked to get it and soon after captured an image that we cannot wait to share with you!
