“THE LIGHTNING MAN” RIDES BOULDER COUNTY STORMS

Photographer sets up shop in electrical heat of recent rainstorms

Call him crazy, he does what he loves: chasing lightning at night with a camera. While some Boulder County locals may gripe about the unusually wet and scary weather we’ve been having, James “Bo” Insogna races out into the middle of it. Insogna, a twenty-year veteran of lightning photography in the Arizona desert, has recently taken on the challenge of capturing Boulder County storms from his home base in Longmont.

“Colorado lightning shoots are proving to be harder and more challenging than my shots in Arizona,” Insogna says. “There, the warm climate monsoon storms came in at sunset and hung around till 2:00 a.m. when I was lucky. But in Colorado, the storms come in fast and leave the same way. I have to move fast and get to a location quickly.”

A severe storm in mid-June had Insogna at the edge of McIntosh Lake in northwest Longmont at 2:00 a.m. “An amazing storm,” Insogna said, “very intense.” In 45 minutes he’d shot well over 100 frames to get three or four good images for what he considers a very successful night. The closer he gets to water, mountain peaks, or unusual land features, the better. He keeps a list of local features he’d like to photograph under the brilliance of local lightning. Open space and reservoirs are listed, as well as Front Range peaks that are the backdrop to daily life in Boulder County. And getting just the right shots can take some time.

“I have settings where I’ve worked for a few years to get Mother Nature to be in the right place at the right time,” Insogna says. Particularly with his work in the desert. But lately, Insogna has begun experimenting with combining some images for artistic effect. ”It’s a neat way to add to the drama of landscape, and lighting.”

Insogna’s workday persona is as a portrait and nature photographer through his home-studio business, www.Striking-Photography.com . “People and animals are always fascinating in their variety,” Insogna says. “And lightning? Well, it’s just got this magnetism that keeps pulling me out of the house.”

James Bo Insogna – The Lightning Man – Striking Photography

Bo — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 20:26:33 +0000

Welcome to “The Lightning Man” Web site.

Hello, my name is James Insogna, thank you for stopping by! Bo is my nickname, I am based in Boulder County, Colorado. I’ve been chasing lightning storms since the late eighties, over twenty years. Back then we were shooting film. It’s amazing how much has changed and also how many people have taken up this exciting Storm Chasing adventure catching lightning storms on camera. When you see that first image, you can get hooked very easily. I’ve seen many storm chasers born and it has been fun to coach and watch them grow their skills plus see images from all over the US and all over the world. When the storms die in the USA they are just starting down under in Australia.

The Lightning Man Prints have been purchased from collectors from all over the world and have been featured on the front page of Fine Art America, Imagekind and Redbubble. Images have also appeared and been featured on Television, Magazines, Newspapers, Books and licensed for all kinds of media.

Look for some of the TV interviews and media features on the site.

Custom prints are available in all sizes and shipped world wide to your door. Also canvas art prints, posters, greeting cards and stock images for license. Gallery

If you are interested in or looking for a good human interest story your readers or audience will love, images are always available. Please bear this in mind I am a professional photographer is do this for a living, but there are many win win situations to be created.

Also if you would like to use or license one of the images on the site or in a gallery, please contact me. 1-888- 682-0122

It is my hope that when you see my work you see that my style is a little different and has been considered some of the best lightning images in the world. There are shots that have been worked on for many years just to get the storm to be in the right place at the right time… and even more … me being in the right place at the right time. My gear is always ready to go and when the crack thunder sounds, it is my calling to get out and chase a storm. In other words when everyone is running inside ( and you should) it is out the door into the thick of things for me. It is more than just getting a shot of a lightning bolt… it is about getting an interesting shot of lightning.

Please make no mistake, it is extremely exciting to catch some lightning bolts on camera and is even an incredible rush… but it can be extremely dangerous. So if you decide you want to be a “storm chaser” be aware of your surroundings and have the right gear.

There have been a few times all the hair on my body stood up and I knew there was a charge building, there have also been many situations I have crawled out of. When the Budweiser Storm images happened, that was a chase that almost took me from Boulder County to Wyoming. At the start of the photo shoot: First, the remote on the camera would get hit. Next, I would jump in the back of the SUV with my feet off the ground with comfort of four rubber tires for safety. It was the most erratic lightning I’ve ever seen. Scary stuff. You could not tell where the bolts were going to hit next. Front of you, behind you or on top of you! So safety is always number one.
