Eye of the Storm // Photographing a Supercell

In the spring.. its typical to get lightning storms here in Washington State, but a Supercell is not something we typically get. I knew there was a storm rolling in, but what actually arrived I was not prepared for.

[@rajkoerjavec6312]

Magical

[@Guy-Martin]

The combination of bold music and enhanced photos is pretty cool. It's always amazing to witness those supercells. Stay safe and thanks for sharing.

[@ThomasHeatonPhoto]

Epic, just epic. I'm loving the recent video style. Nice and chill 😎

[@nickshepherd8377]

Nick...it was like watching a blockbuster movie. You must be be so pleased with those images. The one of the cell with the lighting bolt on the right is one of the best images I have ever seen! Brilliant! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@geonerd]

Storms over the Palouse region. Sweet!

[@Valadhiel76]

Nick Page the Storm Chaser! :O Woooooooooow! That supercell! Those downdrafts kicking up all that dirt ... that was my favorite in this batch. :) Awesome.

[@strongislanduk]

Agree with other comments, that hand held pano is as epic as it gets. How could you not subscribe after seeing that?

[@GaryGough]

Top drawer as always Nick 👍🏻👍🏻 and a couple of stunning images too 👏👏

[@RenBobbins]

The storm spotter in me is geeking out right now! It's very rare for us to find an open enough area to get such a good shot of a supercell, down here in the south. The ones in this video were so photogenic!

[@gr8_22-15]

The Nick page Chronicles: Beyond photography! Amazing stuff. Looked like fun!

[@clark7894]

Wow Nick, you were in the right place at the right time. You are correct in saying it was a mesocyclone, as in severe thunderstorm that's capable of producing a tornado. Glad you stayed safe! I'm a weather observer in Seattle and would love to have been there. So very thankful for you sharing your experience.

[@pekkaiphone]

I just fell of my chair when I saw your photos!!! Incredible!

[@MisterMotel]

I really wish to see one of those storms one day. (we don't have them over here in The Netherlands) but they truly show the force of nature.

[@ChefGregEnriquez]

I'm from central Washington State and miss the wide open land storms that come through in the spring and summer months. Watching this video, I could almost smell that ionized wet dirt smell that those storms produce. I currently live in Switzerland, and while we have big storms, you don't have an opportunity to watch them come in from a long distance away. They just kind of suddenly form when they smash into the hills and mountains.

[@sergioc.p.7845]

Really, really, really ..... aaaaaaawesooooomeeeee!!! Great video and of course, great, great photos. Congrats!!

[@1Adventures2]

Last Saturday I ventured down from Omak to Moses Lake along hwy 17... encountered some great Thunderstorms and later atop of Steptoe Butte.... Palouse Falls was awesome.... THANKS FOR YOUR PASSIONATE CREATIVITY.... IT’S APPRECIATED!!!

[@jamidavis8043]

Wow! All three images are incredible, and picking a favorite would be impossible for me.

[@Berry_N]

Wow, a perfect storm, so to speak - what a combination of weather and talent. Amazing shots and video.

[@ChesneyAdventures]

You are my new favorite landscape photographer!!!

[@scottsoutter7271]

Wild, surreal shots. Loved the deep green of the fields with that insane cloudmass above. Glad you weren't the shortest path to ground too.

[@francisschweitzer8431]

Lightning means Hail. It’s the ice in motion that helps create lightning. This also means very high cloud top with a lot of convection. The most dangerous area of a Mezo Cell is the Southeastern corner. You did some awesome work there.

[@oddbjrnaustevikfoto]

Glad you had the option of refuge in the car. Got caught in a lightning storm once, not fun at all (but exciting afterwards)! Some incredible photographs you got before it arrived. Very atmospheric as you said. Great job Nick 👍

[@bradzaruba9686]

I am amazed at the effort you put into producing today’s video. First off, stellar shots from beginning to end, both video and still. Most do not recognize the time it takes to set up a shot that will only last a few seconds. Visualizing these shots is not easy but the pay-off was amazing. First rate, Nick.

[@josephschrock5092]

...super cell, super Nick, super pics, super video!!!

[@davideastham]

Nothing like the right place at the right time !!

[@mirto5663]

Meteorlogical magic, Nick! Beautiful shots!

[@pliang1]

Hi Nick, Fantastic movie and not to forget .... amazing photos. Regards from Holland

[@OAPMrTickle]

Those shots are FANTASTIC Nick. They, for me, surpass your mega wave photo 😎

[@soxgopro5552]

I saw one of those directly over my head at work once, their were layers of clouds spiraling the opposite direction of each other, amazing and scary at the same time.

[@scotty4418]

Using a golfing term.....you aced this one Nick. The production, music and images were phenomenal and truly epic👍

[@NickPage]

Thank you Scotty

[@matt.pereira]

Blown away by the amazingness of these photos - inspiring ! Shame we don't get this stuff in the UK - i'd be all over that !!

[@markgubbins1958]

Wonderful video !!! I love the still shot, with the lightning bolt on the right side, and the meso in the middle.

[@gerryroncolato8895]

Nick...just one word: WOW!! Thanks.

[@globally123]

I was so lucky to stumble across your channel. What a truly lovely experience it was, and so enlightening and educational. I cannot thank you enough, thank you again.

[@projektphotovisions]

This is sooo great! Mood of the storm hunting, amazing shots... You hit my sensitive string, Great Job Nick!

[@shalyn5835]

I'm dying to get pictures of a mesocyclone like that such gorgeous pictures

[@paulhendershott667]

Wow! It's like an Ansel Adams meets Reed Timmer mashup! Quite moving my friend!

[@user-rq7gy1xf3m]

Neat shots big guy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Minds will still be blown 100 years from now when they see these photos. Speechless.

[@stevebailie2900]

Have enjoyed so many of your videos and photos, but this I think is my favorite. Outstanding preparation and both the time lapse and photos are great! Thanks.

[@michaelbottari6398]

Such a unbelievable beauty of the storms and in your images of this. But such a horrible dangerous this storms are be. Wonderful and unbelievable beautiful images Nick. Best wishes form Bavaria in Germany.

[@RoyRiley]

Hi Nick. LOVE the image with the lightning towards the end. Very cool! Great video

[@photogill8010]

Awesome images and fantastic time lapse. One of the most beautiful photos I have seen on KZbin. Thanks Nick. I need to get out and shake off the lockdown blues.

[@leifvaughn1172]

Absolutely gorgeous photos. 😮

[@waynebrookes4309]

Just unreal the effort that goes into this, and still nails supurb images. Keep em comming Nick 👍

[@NickPage]

I appreciate that Wayne.. it wasn't an easy one to film thats for sure.. it got pretty sloppy towards the end haha

[@gjfotos7693]

Incredible photos. Really love the drama in it. Thanks for showing how you did it ! 👍👌✌

[@jimhughes3451]

WOW!! I live in Richland WA and it amazes me how much weather like this we see here now. We have had at least 2 small tornadoes here just this year. Awesome pics Nick... Guess I need to do a road trip in my local area more often.

[@johnallibon2792]

Hi Nick. Super stuff. Particularly liked the lightening bolt shot. Well done.

[@jeremybuscay]

Some really solid images from that storm. Thanks for posting Nick!

[@simonbaigrie2485]

Very cool shots! Particularly like Nick's built in dopple radar twitching in the wind at 0:48!

[@rubbertoe77]

That was a cool storm we had. The morning storm in Tri-Cities was awesome. Crazy colors. Of course I didn’t have my camera out and was barely awake. The evening one didn’t pan out over here, but it looks like it was amazing over there in your area. Awesome shots!

[@martchaka]

Wow. What a great video and epic shots. The handheld pano was so amazing. Just unreal... Thanks for sharing!!!

[@tysonator5433]

The video editing at the beginning is very cool.Nick has new 4x4 as I am sure he had a black one before !

[@rpbns]

Jeez, the shot at 6:15, stunning! Great work Nick!

[@sityak2000]

Congratulations Nick! Well done for all the work you put into this video. The results speak for themselves.

[@iczemi]

I love the epic photos especially the one with the lightning. Thanks.

[@MikeStAmand]

Wow! That's it..... just Wow!

[@jackarigho617]

Wow, that was some storm. Great video Nick, thanks for sharing.👍👍

[@DarrenKnightPhoto]

What a great video to wake to with my morning coffee. Nick, your processing is always 1st class 👍

[@FramedProductions]

I just drove past Steptoe the other day! It is beautiful out there, so much potential for these types of photography.

[@Essyton85]

I'm a little late to this video, but the images and video itself were top-notch. Every time I think I've seen your best, you outdo yourself. Thank you for sharing.

[@paulus0109]

That... was awesome Nick. What great images. Loved the timelapses. Thnx.v.m.

[@StevenDavisPhoto]

Freaking amazing. I just started a Storm Chasing tour in Denver with Silver Lining Tours. Never done this before. I hope to get some supercell shots!

[@CasadeCastiza]

Oh man oh man. Nature at its most powerful. Just amazing that you captured this so perfectly! Thanks for putting this out there for us peeps who also got caught in this storm (Central Oregon for me). Crazy Freaking scary!

[@paulafontanini5719]

Great video Nick...you got some killer images & timelapse. Pretty intense storm, glad you made it out ok!

[@josephstanski5180]

Absolutely WOW!

[@davidhartfieldphotography]

What an epic opportunity. Great images.

[@davidgilmore2565]

Bucket List shots Nick! Bravo!

[@myobjectiveopinions]

One of the best videos on KZbin.

[@warrenevan270]

What a superb subject to capture, well executed and captured the drama perfectly.

[@sylvanorosenberg8012]

So freakin jelouse.... love the shots you took of the supercell above the old barn. Over here in The Netherlands storms like these are rare, most of the time only rollclouds. But would love to get back to the US and to get some of these awesome pictures like you do. Thanks for sharing. 🙏

[@jowb575]

Wow! I live in the Midwest but our skies aren’t this open. I really enjoyed your video and the photos are incredible. That pano...handheld and your not shaking, cool!

[@myoung72207]

I just thought I was a storm photographer. You sir are what I aspire to be. Amazing work!

[@dougsullivan3564]

National Geographic and Smithsonian channels ain’t got nothing on you! Just fantastic!

[@paultaylorphotography9499]

Incredible video stunning beautiful footage and those images wow that’s all just spectacularly stunningly stunning top work mate loved every second 📷❤️

[@johneratcliff]

That was a nice spring shower in Texas! Beautiful pictures bro.....

[@RussellMcCollom]

Dude that pic at 6:11 is freakin awesome. Very cool cell. That wind was crazy,

[@timmonaghan3219]

Bit late on this one. Another absolutely insane video. As I said a few days ago, that is a National Geographic cover right there. Stunning, stunning and stunning.

[@glennwadlegih1896]

Great video. Shots are outstanding. Your attention to safety is a spot on reminder to all. Thanks for sharing

[@allanduff7234]

Incredible, I loved the drama and the pictures, thanks for braving it for us to see.

[@ToBCreations]

Epic! Scary and very fascinating sight! Fantastic timelapse and photos!😃👍

[@simonbaker6794]

Hi Nick. this has to be one of the best photography youtubes I have seen. Many thanks for the continued inspiration.

Thumbnail alone.... 👏 👏 👏

[@hasadna1965]

Hello Nick, your KZbin videos are inspiring, I am really thrilled with this video, thank you very much for the inspiration you give to photographers all over the world, Shlomi Ben David from Israel

[@bruceclarkphotography]

Those were some great shots of that super cell...very nice

[@Fredrik_ST_wagon]

Duude this was amazing! Brilliant shooting. The music was epic, gave your vid a Chris Nolan/Hans Zimmer vibe to it, goose bumps for sure.

[@JackArnold7]

lovely. you are working close to home. I am not happy with how this whole COVID thing keeps me from traveling to my favorite places. but it is teaching me to find images where I am.

[@joannahiattkim3680]

Those photos are ridiculous. Thanks for sharing.

[@pfunkdede]

What can i say. Really stunning. I love your photos but that storm was really scary. Nick, take care.

[@KellyPettit]

Wow. Excellent video and 3 epic photos. Not sure which one is my fav. Really great. Thanks, Nick.

[@davidrippin9222]

Those images are insanely impressive Nick! Amazing stuff!

[@monicatellez7984]

Fantastic. I love storms

[@richardwagner3317]

Incredible photos. Your timing was perfect. Thanks for sharing

[@mathieubecht7405]

Absolument splendide. Très bon reportage. Merci Nick pour cette réalisation.

[@uknwwho2984]

Epic! I consider myself lucky to have stumbled across your channel years ago and every video you post shows how much it was worth it. Thank you, Nick!

[@NickPage]

Really appreciate the kind words!

[@johnpunnett1426]

Wow brave man Mr.P some epic shots though so top marks...

[@charlenenagel7962]

Wow Nick! Absolutely spectacular!

[@keiwank1530]

Nick as stormchaser is a new stuff with great results but non the less quite dangerous, thanks for risky venture !

[@NickPage]

Yeah it is incredibly dangerous for multiple reasons. I almost hesitate to publish stuff like this because I don’t want to be responsible for any injuries or deaths

[@marcthomas9831]

Another fantastic video, really nicely shot that gave a great feel of being there. Love the stills but love the time lapses more.

[@therightfoot81]

Wow. Those images are unbelievably brilliant. Great Vid.
