Gorgeous Timelapse Video of Storm Moving in Over Kansas City

Vimeo Link

This stunning timelapse video of a thunderstorm over downtown Kansas City is shot by photographer Stephen Locke. He calls the video Arcus Cloud Kansas City. When associated with a thunderstorm, an arcus cloud is a low, horizontal shelf cloud attached to the primary (parent) cloud.

Locke loves to capture natural beauty such as this, both in video and still shoots. He writes on his website,

"My life as a visual artist inspires me to explore the mystery of this world. It’s an endless process of inquiry. I photograph the sunrise almost every morning. When I have an open mind I am always there for the very first time and receptive to the creativity of this moment- over and over again."

Thinking of the WHO concert in Cincinnati reminded me of an almost disastrous situation at an Emerson,Lake, and Palmer concert I attended. It was around 1973 at the Binghamton NY Arena. I was with a few friends that were in a large crowd on an entrance ramp waiting for the doors to open. all tickets were general admission. When they opened a few doors and the crowd began to move, there was a brief moment when I sensed fear as the crowd surged forward in unison. I could feel that it was impossible for me to stop as I was pressed from behind and forced to press in front of me. Fortunately there was no panic and the crowd eventually thinned out enough that me trepidation was relieved.
