This year’s monsoon got to an early start! The season officially runs from June 15th to September 30th but here in Tucson it usually kicks off around July 4th. This year, however, the storms arrived just on time. Below are some of the photos and timelapses I have captured during this Monsoon!
This year was a bit different. I wound up making a whole bunch of short videos for tik tok and instagram. Here is a few favorites That I have captured this monsoon. You can view more at my tik tok profile.
