Dan: I live in Albany and have often marveled in the beauty and magnificence that I see aroung me. Your talent has captured God's creative beauty and made it available for all to see. Recognize many of you photo sites but in a new and glowing light. Keep of the wonderful work. Your site is one I will continue to visit frequently.

Hi Dan, It was coming across your galleries that led me to join pbase and every time I revisit your page I am absorbed by your photography. Stunning and well captured astro photography and beautiful captures of your wonderful skies. Amazing clear skies - rarely seen just outside London! Thanks for sharing.

Linda		08-Jan-2010 21:19
I am troubled by the recent derogatory postings presuming to know where the "rainbow tree" is. I have lived in Indiana for 35 years, but I grew up near Elam Bend in Gentry County and I know that road and I know that tree, and I am privileged to be able to visit it and other places that are meaningful to me in Dan Bush's photos. I know I am not alone.

PILZBERI		07-Jan-2010 00:32
SUPER COOL

Ken		03-Dec-2009 20:58
Sallie G., Do you have a clue as to what you are talking about?? Calling people names and accusing them of wrong doing? If you took the time to look over the website and then maybe you could figure out it was not stolen. People who live here in Northwest Missouri konw where this location is and could drive there and take a picture of that same tree. I think maybe you need to find out some more information other than a news story from the other side of Earth. If you are from this area, you would know that none of these are stolen londonlad, we recognize and see these places all of the time where Dan takes his pictures.

Londonlad		23-Nov-2009 17:00
I wonder just how many of these shots are actually stolen as the rainbow one from NZ??

Dotti Smythe		18-Nov-2009 13:41
Thank you for sharing your beautiful photographs. They are a remarkable gift to the world.

Guest		15-Nov-2009 02:54
Sallie G needs to lay off the caffine! Dan would never do that.

Sallie G		13-Nov-2009 20:12
You, Dan, are an effing plagiarist. Stealing a picture off a young NZ lady and pretending you took the photograph. Oh, I'm sure you know what i'm talking about. That rainbow tree picture. As a matter of fact, it was taken in Auckland, not America. Shame on you for being such a bastard!!!!

Karen Cox		12-Nov-2009 22:28

Beautiful work. And to the person spending the past 35 years in Missouri, obviously you live in a hole. I have spent my entire life, 41 years, in Missouri and have seen numerous beautiful skies. Thank you for reminding me of all the pictures my father took with his camera and the hours of slides and stories we were able to share.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful work!!!!! Your photos, absolutely stunning, take me away for momentary excursions from the daily mundane into the specatcular beauty of our Creator! Please! continue to share! -RA

Dorothy		10-Jan-2009 07:55
I have to disagree with the person that said your photographs couldn't have been in Mo. I've lived in Mo. all my life and I've seen the same or simular to your pictures. If you live in the city, you may never see some of these things. Some things only happen once in a while, and if your not there with your camera then the moment is gone. Thanks for being there with your camera when we could not. We're looking foward for more in 2009.

Philippe GUERIN	PM reply	25-Dec-2008 16:11

Bem, s�o realmente fotos espetaculares, mas n�s tamb�m temos um c�u maravilhoso, s� faltam mesmo telesc�pios. Mas um dia ficaremos t�o ricos quanto voc�s, claro, com a recente descoberta de enormes bacias petrol�feras, ent�o poderemos tamb�m ter os melhores telesc�pios dispon�veis, e observarmos nosso esplendoroso c�u.

Anonymous		25-Nov-2008 22:50
LOL, I spent 35 years in Missouri. Someone has obviously been having fun with some photoshop. No way are some of these from Missouri. No way. But you are very creative.

Guest		25-Nov-2008 04:32
Awestruck!! These are just awesome...how amazingly God paints the skies. Wonderful pictures, thanx for the blessing.

Barb		29-Oct-2008 21:22
My friend just introduced me to your site. It is awesome! We live in the area (southern Iowa)and have seen these skies before, but you have captured the best of the best! Thank you for sharing.

joan m maloney		25-Oct-2008 15:51
I absolutely love skies as you obviously do yourself and I have had some of my pastels exhibited in galleries but I have never seen such beautiful skies as you have recorded here yourself. Thank you for allowing me to see them.

brad		21-Oct-2008 18:14
i just so happen to be touring through missouri...in my hotel room in cape geraldo and stumbled upon this website. beautiful pictures. i saw a sunset last night that was pretty, if only i had had my camera. xo

Excellent gallery, Keep up the great work.

Kathy M.		29-Sep-2008 02:51
I appreciate your view into the world via Missouri...I live in the state too, and I find it to be a very beautiful place to live. Thanks for showcasing all the wonderful, simple things that take your breath away. Like the Australian, I am so tired of the political shenanigans and prefer at times to instead just get lost in the beauty of prairie grass under the winter sun or ice storm pictures. Good way to regroup. Please post more of your biography...where you grew up, where you went to college, your background in photography, your job, your age...just curious as to what makes you look at world the way you do. Keep it up. I'll keep checking back to see your gorgeous photos.

hogue		21-Sep-2008 23:09
Dan, these photos just stun me! I am in Australia and now wish the news providers would stop telling us what the 'political big wigs' in America are up to and just gave us one of your amazing photos with the heading 'Look at this wonderful sunset/rainbow/moon over Missouri'. It would help international relations I am sure.

Christie		15-Aug-2008 22:10
Just curious if while watching the sky over MO if you have noticed anything wierd with the clouds or the way they form or the fog that you see? Just curious for your opinion. Love the pictures.

DOROTHY		07-Aug-2008 06:41
It's good to find someone that appreciates the beauty that we have here in MO. There are so many that photograph just the mountains or the coast. Great work.

Leonard		25-Jul-2008 21:07
I found your web site today. It's GREAT!!! Yoy must be a professional photographer, and far more than an amateur astronomer,and I would guess a storm chaser. Quite a remarkable job. I live on the other side of the state, otherwise I would like to meet you. I will be back to your web site many times, you can't see it all in one visit.

Marcos Garc�a	PM reply	05-Jul-2008 13:27
outstanding series Dan!!! GMV

Rhonda Drake		14-Jun-2008 23:40
Viewing your photographs has been a real treat for me. I am a native of Missouri but have lived the last 23 years in New York. Your photographs make me feel very nostalgic for my home state, and yet, given your eye for beauty, I am sure that your lens captures much more than I would see if I lived in Missouri even now. Thank you so much for this web site. It is truly an inspiration to me.

Bill McMullen	PM reply	10-Jun-2008 18:58

Jerry VanHoutan		16-Mar-2008 03:29
Dan: Great work! Makes me home sick. I grew up in the New Hampton area ,graduated Albany Hign School and NWMSU befor leaving the state. Been trying to come home for a long time.My uncle Jerry owned the elevator across the street from the OLD BUTCHER SHOP. My Dad, his two brothers and the butcher developed turkey rolls to market ( we raised turkeys NW of New Hampton) but it was 20 years to early for the idea. Hope to meet you when I come home. Jerry VanHoutan, Michigan.

Dan, Thanks from an old Missourian now retired near Charlotte. Grew up in the bootheel, but lived in Bonne Terre and Columbia and Mexico. Saw a lot of Missouri skies in my years. You have caught wonderful images of Missouri Skies. Brings tears. Thanks again.

Guest		07-Oct-2007 10:15
Dan, My wife & I grew up in New Hampton and graduated from NWMSU and I worked as a kid for various farmers in the area so I know many of these these locations. You have done an awesome job of capturing the beauty of NW Missouri. Many, many thanks for the beauty and the memories. M.Baker, Cleveland, TN

Brittany		02-Oct-2007 00:55

I am a part-time pro photographer; have been doing it for about 30 years. I haven't done much recently, but your photos give me some motivation to get back at it after I retire from my "real" job after 2008. You've got a great sense of composition, using what nature has provided! Keep up the excellent work!!!

Joan		18-Jul-2007 06:31

There is one thing to be said about what nature has to offer, and not many people can be not only lucky enough to see images like this, but to also capture the splendor of that one moment in time when everything came together to form an awe inspiring moment...my fav is the rainbow over the tree. From one photographer to another...even I was awestruck by some of your photos. Now you just have to come up to Canada and grab some beatiful snow pics. Alberta, Canada

Tyler		04-Mar-2007 02:02
These are amazing! I wish I lived in the country so I could take Pictures like these, But of corse I don't know what Im doing, Would you suggest a Nikon D70 if Im just starting? I live in omaha, so theres no way I can see the amazing astrography you are photographing. I will be checking this site regularly, That is a really sweet observatory...Thanks!! these are GREAT!!!

Cory O		20-Feb-2007 05:16
I love coming to your site to see all of the sky pictures. I too love taking sky shots with my digital SLR (D50) and anything else mother nature throws at us. I am jeolous that you get such interesting weather pictures. I live in Alabama and we just don't have the same cloud formations as you. Keep up the good work!

Your photos leave me breathless. I'm originally from Union Star but got your website from a friend in California. I love your eye and skill at composition. My current favorite is Approaching Gust Cloud but I have been fascinated by the Roll Cloud too. I don't think I have ever seen one but then I have a suspicion you see many things that the rest of us just pass by. Thanks for your wonderful photos.

Lavon		03-Oct-2006 21:00
This webpage is awesome! The photograph I most admired was of the double rain bow with a tree in the center. My thoughts were of God's creation, heaven and earth. The tree of life was placed in the garden. The light of world shines within the rainbow. The rainbow is the symbol of God's promise. Some much said in one photograph. Awesome!

Wow! I was searching for photographs of rainbows, and I was blessed to find your site. So beautiful! Your observations reflect such kindness and appreciation.

Marvin Bush		04-Aug-2006 18:43
I have seen sunsets from around the United States and world. Some more beautiful than yours and others that cannot hold a candle to the ones you have taken. I used to shoot outdoors pictures of wildlife, scenery and people; most were on slides. I used a Minolta Maxxum 7000. My Lens were AF-50mm, AF 35-80, AF 100-200. I never use a fisheye lens. I also would sometimes use a 2X AF Tele-converter 4E/MC (M/AF 20-07-18) this help to bring the insects closer. I have enjoyed looking at the wonderful shots that you have taken and will return to see if you post any new ones. By the way Dan, are you related to the President? I

I have never seen anything quite like this. Thanks for your site, it is a real blessing to see all these amazing pictures especially the complete double rainbow at Elam Bend and those awesome mammatus clouds. They are really scary, I've never seem anything like those in the UK where I live, never want to either. I think you were very brave to even look at them. The plane and moon is another scary one. Well done.

I love your photographs. They are awesome. I live in southern MO. and many times I have tried to photograph a sunset/sunrise like these but they do not turn out. What kind of set up do you use? Mine never has enough light to get a good photo. Keep up the good work, and please continue to share, so all can see.

"Babyface"		15-May-2006 16:49
Dan, I drive a truck for a living, going from the midwest to the west coast every week. I have seen many gorgeous sunsets and sunrises. You have done a miraculous job of capturing this beauty! (Second only to seeing these scenes firsthand!)Wish you would capture the western skies as well...but you show Missouri in it's true colors.

I have grown up in Missouri and always thought that this had to be the most drab place on earth but after looking at you photos; I have relized that I have got to get out more and experience my surroundings. There has to be sights like these around my small portion of Missouri. I have to also say that these are by far the most stunning photos that I have ever seen.

Mr. Bush, I have truly enjoyed these pictures. I was born and raised in Missouri, and lived there for 26 years! I now am out of state, and I miss my homeland so much! My husband and I hope to be living again soon in the Show-Me State! Some may say a prairie is boring, but I say it's only boring for those that can't appreciate it! Thank you! Please add more pictures of the landscape when you can. PS: I am from the Ozarks region. Could you get some more pictures of the hills?

I was born and grew up in Missouri, but for a period of 7 years in Ohio, I have spent my adulthood in the west (Colorado, Wyoming and Utah). I fell in love with the mountains and skies in the west, but have always loved the beauty of the outdoors anywhere. My brother forwarded the pictures of your rainbow, and I had to investigate the rest of your site.I must say that I almost cried with the emotion I felt from looking at your pictures. They transported me to places where I have sat and soaked up God's creation and brought back memories of more tranquil times. I used to take a lot of pictures when I was in a better physical condition and could hike the trails. Thank you for sharing your eye and talent.

Whitedove		02-Apr-2006 01:39
Your photos moved me to tears. I'm incredibly homesick for my prairie skies again. These shots capture so much more than you can even imagine but I think as an artist you know the emotions you evoke.

We have similar sunsets in Texas, but I have never seen such beautiful photographs! Thanks for making them available. I was sent the rainbow and had to see others! I have seen double rainbows, of course one is the reflection of the other. I have also seen complete rainbows a few times, but never both at once, and never so close as these appear. Isn't God wonderful to paint such beauty for us to view?!!

Since I am often at the Pacific ocean during sunset time, I have had the opportunity to capture some sunsets, but your colors on the prairie seem far more vivid and varied. Keep up the great work and I will be checking back from time to time.

thanks for the fantastic images! and the data on the pictures that downloaded into my ACDSee picture files as I copied each...DSL downloads them very quickly! You must have a lot of patience. Did the digital camera take some time to adjust to capturing these images with low light? a friend told me about your site. You should submit some of these to Weather Underground, which reachs a national audience every minute of every day. PEACE, & BE WELL! Arturo,Saint Louis (CWE) MO

You've done a great service not only to Missouri but to everyone who thinks the grass is greener elsewhere. We all have it right in our own backyard - as you have so eloquently displayed on this site.

I make you very compliments for the photos. I like so much the photos in particular Sunsets and others. Every day I do a particular peep at your site. Many compliments again. Danilo My WEB http://digilander.libero.it/M42Orione

First time I have read all of the comments. As usual all of the photos are great. I especially liked the series of the tree and moon three different points of view

You've captured the ultimate with your picture of the full rainbow at Elam Bend. Everyone was talking about seeing the rainbow in town, and to see one in Feb. is pretty remarkable. Good picture of the 100 plus year old Wayman Barn that was completely destroyed by the 04 tornado. It is so sad to drive by and no longer see a piece of history.
