Timing was everything. As the pressure dropped and the wind began to pick up, the light transformed into something magical. The atmosphere had a raw intensity that made every shot feel alive. We chose a coastal location that added dramatic foreground interest to the already epic sky.
Throughout the shoot, we pushed the Nikon Z6III to its limits:
- Low-light performance as the sun dipped below the horizon 🌇
- High-speed continuous shooting to catch fleeting moments 🌬️
