Once in a lifetime moment...

Imagine experiencing a once in a lifetime moment.  Now, imagine capturing this with your camera and being able to share it with the rest of the world.

I was very fortunate this past summer to travel to South Africa for a month, and witness some things that I had only ever hoped I would see.  I'm still going through my images from South Africa and will post some soon, I just need to catch up with all my client request and find some spare time in between teaching classes to photography and photoshop enthusiast.

The following video is not something that I've shot, but something that I could relate to, and figured there would be some of you out there that could relate to it as well.

"Bob Poole is a DP (Director of Photography for you still shooters) who often works for National Geographic. While filming researcher Jake Wall who is studying the migration of African elephants, Bob and his team came across one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen capture on video. You gotta watch this video to believe it but Bob was trapped in a sand storm in Mail for 4 hours while the sun was all but completely blocked by the flying debris. It always amazes me when I see photographers or videographers capture nature at it’s best."  fstoppers
