What Natural Phenomenon do you like capturing in photos or film?
I would have to say capturing a lightning strike on a photo. There's always do much intensity on such photos. Whenever I hear distant thunder, I would always try to get a clear shot of a lightnings strike. Once I got the opportunity to capture a crooked lighting or forked lighting and it was terribly close by too.

I think all you have to do is to set up a video camera everyday. Just like the seismologist they have set up their apparatus to measure the strength of the earthquake in the Richter scales so you must have a set up to capture the shaking of the building. This is now possible because of the CCTV.
At one point the storm got too close for comfort so I just shut down the project, because I was basically standing on my roof with thunder clouds on top of me. I probably had the best odds I'd ever get at that point, but I wasn't about to become a lightning rod for a photo opportunity, haha.
But in terms of "safe" natural phenomena. What I love capturing the most are sunsets and staircase to the moon.
I just find those phenomena calming to look at. There is this peaceful feeling that you can't explain just by looking at them.

I would very much like to film this place, I think it's probably a unique geographical phenomenon.
I like to capture the ocean, the waves, waterfalls, and the most fascinating and the most popular phenomenon of Sunrise and Sunset are my favourite.
Aside from sunsets, I also love night skies, but it's very difficult for me to capture good photos with my smartphone. My camera cannot capture the stars and clouds as well as the colors of the sunset. For now, I'm satisfied with looking at others' photos of night skies. One day, I will be able to save up for a decent camera and take good photos of starry night skies!
