The Big Cloud: Specatular Photographs of Storm Clouds

More than 85 thrilling photographs: These beautiful photographs of stormfronts, tornados, lightning storms, and pitch-black skies engulf the viewer's imagination and never fail to impart the awe-inspiring power of our constantly shifting weather and climate. Seaman's work is a potent reminder that there is no art more dramatic, in scale or emotion, than that created by nature.

"I wasn't born a storm chaser. Like so many things in my life it came out of left field, without a warning or sign." Camille Seaman is a TED Senior Fellow whose TED Talk on her photographs of supercell storms has garnered more than 1,600,000 views. She has received a National Geographic Award, and her photographs appear in publications including Time, The New York Times, and Men's Journal.

"A cloud can be beautiful, terrible, or both -- the embodiment of the sublime." The Big Cloud features an introduction by Alan Burdick, author and science editor for The New Yorker.
