Franz Schumacher is 61 years old photographer from Germany with passion to the stormy weather. When Franz sees the storm he doesn’t run for cover. Instead, he sets up his camera and photographs the experience for all to see. Harvest Time is a series of storms that roll in during the harvesting season in Strohgaeu Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. With an extreme clarity, the fearless photographer documents the landscapes with a painterly touch. Rows of bright, dry fields glow in the golden sun as an energetic sky filled with dark, swirling clouds and a heavy rainfall hovers in the distance. These marvelous landscapes are a gorgeous display of a fierce storm set directly against an otherwise peaceful and natural calm.
