这是另外一个版本的《完美风暴》 (点击查看原始版本）。这时候风暴距离我更近，更危险，也更有视觉冲击力。不过原始版本的微爆流云看起来更加完整。

"Grand Finale", Grand Canyon National Park, USA
I have been using my Canon R5 with a lightning trigger to capture some stunning lightning strikes. However, I am not completely satisfied with the image quality of R5. Don’t get me wrong. R5 is one of the best 35mm digital systems out there, but if you are spoiled by the image quality of a digital back, it will be hard to look the other way. Unfortunately, at this moment, there are no triggers work with my Phase One IQ 4150.

I was chasing thunderstorms in the southwest of USA. When I saw this epic scene - the Grand Canyon, the awesome rainbow, the beautiful afternoon light, the non-stopping lightning bolts, and the storm – I knew that I had to “get the shot” in the highest quality. I need a new and unconventional way to make this image. I set up a medium format system (Alpa 12 STC Camera, Phase One IQ4150 Digital Back, Rhodenstock HR 50mm Lens) and a 35mm system (Canon EOS R5, Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM) side by side, on two tripods, pointing to the same location. A Kase Armour CPL filter and a 6-stop ND filter, as well as a Lightning Trigger was used on the Canon system. The Phase One system was used to capture the ground (two images stitched together). The Canon system recorded the sky and the lightning actions. I then combined the sky from the Canon (need to resize it to match the Phase One image, of course) and the ground from the Phase One system to make this image. The lightning portion was a result of stacking several images to show more than one lightning strikes.

《盛大压轴》，大峡谷国家公园
我一直在使用带有闪电触发器的佳能 R5 相机来拍摄闪电。不过我对R5的画质并不完全满意。虽然R5 是目前最好的135数码系统之一， 但一旦习惯了数码后背的顶级画质后就很难回头了。 可惜目前没有哪个闪电触发器能触发数码后背。

前些天我在美国西南各地追逐雷暴。那天下午，当我看到这个史诗般的场景 - 雄伟的大峡谷、壮观的彩虹、美丽的午后光线、持续不断的闪电、和暴风雨时 - 我知道我必须以最好的画质来拍到眼前这个场景。这张作品是我的一个全新的、非常规尝试。 我把一个中画幅系统（阿尔帕 12 STC 相机、飞思 IQ4150 数码后背、 罗顿斯德 HR 50mm 镜头）和一个 135 系统（佳能 EOS R5相机、佳能 RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM镜头）用两个脚架并排架起来，拍摄同一个位置。 在佳能系统上使用了 卡色铠甲 CPL 滤镜和 6 档 ND 滤镜，以及闪电触发器。飞思后背用于拍摄地面（两张图像拼接成宽幅）。 佳能系统则记录了天空和闪电。然后，我将佳能拍的天空（当然需要调整其大小以匹配飞思的图像）和飞思系统拍的地面 拼接起来制作这张图像。闪电部分是叠加数张图像的结果。

"Strange Forest", Mono Lake, California, USA
These delicate and intricate sand formations by the lake are quite small. The camera has to be placed very close to the subject to get this imeage. A total of ten images were take for focus-stacking purpose.

《怪异森林》，美国加州梦娜湖
湖边的这些精美复杂无比的天然沙雕其实非常小。镜头必须距离主体非常近才能拍到张作品。为了景深合成，我总共拍摄了10张原片。

"Moody Curves", Arizona, USA

《情绪的线条》，美国亚利桑那州

"Aproaching Morning Storm", Uath, USA
I was leading a tour in the southwest, and our group were shooting some fantastic ground cracks this morning. When I saw a storm was approaching, and we jumped into action. I need a HR23mm lens to get the wide-angle shot, but I left it in my truck! I only had an HR 32mm lens with me. Well, when you stitch two vertical images (using the shift movement) of HR 32, you will get almost the exact same view of HR 23mm, with more megapixels of course! I discussed this topic here .

《沙漠风暴》，美国犹他州
我在美国西南带一个摄影团。这天清晨在拍摄一些精彩的地裂时候，远处的暴风雨在向我们逼近。 我发现我需要HR 23这枚超广角镜头，但那天早上我把它留在车里了，手头只有HR 32镜头。没关系，我在《顶级风光摄影器材》一文里提到， 把HR 32通过移轴动作竖拍得到两张拼接后，结果和HR23几乎完全一样，而且像素更高。

"DesertDream", Uath, USA
Some beautiful mud cracks on the desert floor.

《沙漠梦境》，美国犹他州

Stood on top of Hunts Mesa, I saw a sandstorm was rolling through the Monument Valley beneath me. The rising sun casted some beautiful, soft, glowing light onto the endless mesas. It was yet another memorable morning.

《中土日出》，美国纪念碑谷
清晨，我站在纪念碑谷的后山上，看到沙尘暴从远方涌入脚下的山谷。 刚刚升起的太阳把美丽温暖又柔和的光撒在一座座山峰上。这又是一个难以忘怀的清晨。

"A Sudden Glory", Death Valley National Park, USA
Over the last decade, I have been trying to capture an image from this spot many times, but I never had one that I am completely satisfied with. On this day, the weather forecast app showed a very promising outlook. However, at the sunset time, dark clouds filled the western sky. Then, all the sudden, the sky exploded. The best show lasted less than a minute and I was only able to snap three images. However, it could not be any better!

《霎那辉煌》，美国加州死谷国家公园
在过去的十年里，我多次来到这个点拍摄，但从来没有得到一张真正满意的作品。 这一天，天气预报软件给出的预测非常让人期待，可到了日落时分，西边的乌云却越来越厚。 我依然来到拍摄点等待。突然，满天红云猛烈地爆发和燃烧。最好的时刻持续了不到一分钟。 我只有时间拍三张，但这足够了。

"Among the Colors", Death Valley National Park, USA
All the fantastic colors come together in one place.

《置身于色彩之间》，美国加州死谷国家公园
各种色彩难以置信地集中在这一小片山谷里。

《光之魔术》，美国加州死谷国家公园
初升的阳光，在沙丘上形成了变幻莫测的光影和迷人的线条。

"The Perfect Storm", Toroweap Point, Grand Canyon National Park, USA

At the sunset time, in the most remote section of the Grand Canyon, I stood on the edge of the cliff, waiting for the incredibly powerful summer storm moving towards me. Everything came together perfectly. Everything was how it should be - the most stunning view of the entire Grand Canyon, the perfect cumulonimbus cloud formation, the beautiful rainbow, the powerful microburst downpour, the best golden light, and most importantly, the storm was moving towards me and strong wind was blowing towards me (pushing me away from the edge of the cliff), so I could safely capture it up close while staying dry.

A few minutes after capturing this image, hail, rain, powerful wind, sand and stones blown up by the wind in the air, and non-stopping lightning strikes arrived. I had to run for my life. It was an experience that I would never forget.

《完美风暴》，美国大峡谷国家公园
日落时分，在这个大峡谷国家公园最遥远的角落，我站在万丈悬崖边，等着这个超强的雷暴顺着峡谷向我扑来。 一切都如同我期待的那样完美 - 整个大峡谷最壮观的视角、完美的积雨云形状、美丽的彩虹、强劲的微爆流、最美的日落光线。 最重要的是，这个雷暴是从远方顺着峡谷向我扑来，这样我才能等到它非常近的时候才拍摄 - 因为大雨尚未到达，而且前方微爆流 导致的大风是从我面前往身后吹，把我往悬崖后面推。虽然还是有一些风险，但我还是能靠近悬崖拍下全景。如果是旋风或风从我身后来， 我绝不可能站在离边缘那么近的地方。如果它从远方向画面外移动自然不可能如此壮观。如果它是从我身后来， 那此刻我只能找地方逃命，而不可能在悬崖边拍摄了。

拍下这副作品几分钟后，我四周狂风肆虐，飞沙走石，暴雨和冰雹狂砸，电闪雷鸣不断，我不得不从悬崖边缘逃离，躲到安全地方。这是一次永生难忘的经历。

"Last Strikes", Grand Canyon National Park, USA

As the last ray of sunlight shone down, a powerful downpour drenched the Grand Canyon while lightning bolts struck its towering walls, all at the same time. It was truly an incredible day to witness the forces of nature at play.

《残照》，美国大峡谷国家公园
日落前最后的阳光穿过西边云层之间的缝隙照亮了峡谷。眼前浓厚的积雨云下，暴雨和闪电落在峡谷之间。这真是难以置信的一天。

"Look to the Glory", Utah, USA

The fascinating mud cracks form a leading line toward the jagged blue mesa.

The huge Dixie fire of 2021 in California filled the sky of the entire western USA with smoke for many weeks. I was extremely disappointed when I was trying to shoot Mr. Rainier and the Glacier National Park, as I could hardly see the maintains. However, all was not lost. During my storm-chasing trip in the southwest, I was treated with beautiful light beams during almost every sunrise and sunset, thanks to the smokes in the sky.

《远山的辉煌》，美国犹他州
地面奇妙的龟裂形成了一条指向远方蓝色方山的引导线。

2021年巨大的美国加州迪克西山火让整个美国西部的天空充满烟雾。当我去雷尼尔山国家公园和冰川国家公园拍摄的时候，我非常失望，因为连山都很难看到。 但是单纯从风光摄影角度来说，烟雾并不完全是坏事。在美西南追逐闪电之旅中，因为天空中的大量烟雾，几乎每一个日落和日出我都能看到平时梦寐以求的这些光柱。

"Fiery Needles", the Needles District, Canyonlands National Park, Utah

In this April morning, in the remote Needles district, Canyonlands National Park, the clouds burned to vivid red, and the soaring needles reflected the fiery colors of the eastern sky. This is one of the most remote locations in the US southwest. We drove on the famous Elephant Hill trail, one of the most technically challenged 4x4 road in the US, for hours before reaching this location.

《燃烧的针峰》，美国犹他州峡谷地国家公园针峰区

《巨柱》，美国犹他州
在这个极少有人造访的犹他坏地山丘上空，美丽的彩云和壮观的光柱充满了天空。四周寂静无人， 上一次有人来这里的时候大概是数年以前了，因为只有山丘下有几个隐约可见的脚印。

"A Window on a Lost World", New Mexico, USA

This is an old image that I took a few years ago but it never got processed. The “window” in the foreground is very small (just about 2 feet high I believe). I visited the area again last month and noticed that the formation was broken - an inevitable result due to erosion. When I got home, I searched my image collection and processed it. The depth of fields of medium format systems are very shallow when shooting up close, so I had to shoot five frames at different focal distances and manually DOF blended them together (auto-blending never worked for me). The process was very time-consuming. I like the result, though.

《失去的世界》，美国新墨西哥州
这张作品拍摄于好几年前，但一直躺在硬盘里没有处理。这个“窗口”其实非常小，大概只有2英尺高。 上个月我再一次造访此地的时候，发现它已经因为风化而破损了。这个景色自然也就不复存在。 回来后我翻出了文件并处理了出来。这是5张照片景深合成的结果。当贴近拍摄的时候，数码后背的景深极浅， 因此必须拍摄很多张。合成起来也非常费时，但我对结果很满意。

In this April morning, in the remote Needles district, Canyonlands National Park, a storm cloud passed overhead. Suddenly it started raining and I scrambled to cover my camara gear, but I did not leave. Minutes later, I was treated with an amazing show of light and clouds above these incredible rock spirals. This is one of the most remote locations in the US southwest. We drove on the famous Elephant Hill trail, one of the most technically challenged 4x4 road in the US, for hours before reaching this location.

来过美国西南的人都知道，马蹄湾是一个必到的，被千千万万人彻底拍烂了的一个地方。日落的时候，悬崖边挤满了脚架。 每一米都有几个人在那里拍摄。这样的地方还有没有可能拍摄出全新的视角？


是太难了。可努力去发现的话，我还是拍下了这个独特角度。而且，也只有从这里看，这个地形才真的像一个马蹄。

一场意外的森林大火给了摄影师一个千载难逢的机会，拍摄到一个极为特别的梦娜湖。
著名的梦娜湖没有河流出口。周围雨水从高山上把矿物质冲刷下至湖中，经过70多万年的积累，湖水的盐度和碱度都远远高于海洋。这里最具的特 色的景观，就是湖边的一座座奇形怪状的凝灰岩石柱，如同电影魔戒里的梦幻之地。我那天碰到一场因闪电引起的山火。我抓住这个千载难逢的机 会，等到天几乎全黑，火光成为主要光源的时候，用长曝光拍下了这张照片。熊熊火光映红了整个天空，凝灰岩石柱在火光的映衬下显得狰狞，整 个画面如同魔幻电影里的场景，让人难忘。

"The Loop", Canyonlands National Park, Utah, USA
In my opinion, among all the great national parks of American Southwest, Canyonlands National Park offers the most incredible views. It is a land like no other place on earth; a land full of colors, history, wonder, and mystery; a land of countless canyons, mesas, hoodoos, and buttes. To truly appreciate the grandeur of this magical place, you have to see the park from the air. You will see the Colorado River winds through the vast wilderness of Colorado Plateau, cutting through layered, colorful sandstone, forming incredibly shaped deep canyons. It will be a view you will never forget, especially from a helicopter with all doors removed!
