February 2005 Blogs

2/28/2005 Working on the Lightning Video Page. Had to take a break to finish the server switch. I am now operational on my very own high powered computer server backed up by high speed fiber optic lines.

The About Me Page Is Now Back On Line Daylight Lightning Photography Page Is Up All of the Northern Lights Video is now online and ready

2/25/2005 Working on the massive webpage update. I now own a new high powered computer server that is hooked up to an OC3 line for BNVN (mega bandwidth). I’m rebuilding the site from scratch to make it a lot cleaner and organized. Links Pages Are Now Working How Too Photograph Lightning Pages Now Working The Blogs are working for the past 15 months but I’m still working on the photo gallery pages and video pages. I did put up two temp lightning stock photography pages that have a bunch of images in them. Its pretty strange, my past work that I thought was pretty good, is giving me so many idea’s now with the new digital cameras. Before I was limited by the low rez scans and lack of funds but now, I’m just thinking up so many different new tricks to try, its not even funny.

2/24/2005 In Minneapolis Today. Working on a “Major Webpage Update” for the next few days. The links on the left will not work until the pages are updated. I deleted everything and rebuilding the site from the ground up over the next few days before I take off on a storm chase trip to the Cap Rock.

2/20/2005 In Punta Gorda Florida At The Celtic Ray Pub. The Party was great and it was a blast to get to hang out with a lot of the people that live in town and getting to hear some of the different hurricane stories. The number one thing I heard was “The Video Showed What We Missed While Hiding Under The Bed Or In The Bathroom.”

Here are some of the images from the party at the Celtic Ray Pub.
