@marshall you really have a talent for good light composure, it is an inspiration, i already feel more creative just looking at them

Thanks.
I tend to get inspired when I'm able to go to awe inspiring places to photograph. It can be tricky getting the camera to capture the same beauty I can take in with my bare eyes. It's mostly a process of experimentation.
I find that foreward lighting is usually more aesthetically pleasing than back lighting to me. Foreward lighting can be tricky though as far as getting the right composition and exposure, so I do a lot of shutter speed bracketing, changing of white balance, experimenting with the amount of sky to include, etc... and then pick the one that ends up having the best overall mood to me.

Cool. I haven't learned how to do that. Do you need special software to merge the different exposures?

located under automation.
it is a great way to take pictures if your camera has proper bracketing features.
Something I need to try. I imagine I would need to shoot in RAW mode use the tripod so the frame doesn't move between shots.
I'd also like to learn how to get better quality lightning. Below is my first successful capture. I don't know how to prevent the ambient light from making the sky look bright/grainy. I also had to shoot through my windshield from inside the car. You can from the blurriness that it's raining really hard.
