Technician and storm chaser Steven Maguire captured the incredible images in the state of Arizona during some of the most stormy conditions to hit the country
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...60_964x616.jpg
By scouting locations during the off season, he is better prepared for the shots. He then waits for the forecasts to indicate a storm is brewing before going into action
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...78_964x569.jpg
The state of Arizona has monsoon season thunderstorms and chasing them is a risky business. An average of 51 people die every year from lightning strikes in the US
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...79_964x567.jpg
The remarkable pictures capture moments that are only visible for milliseconds when seen by the naked eye - what Mr Maguire calls the storm's 'beauty'
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...91_964x520.jpg
Mr Maguire said patience was key for getting great photographs while storm chasing. Using weather and forecasting technology, he can ensure he is well prepared
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...24_964x570.jpg
Mr Maguire's daring photography work chasing storms is only a hobby, although one shoot can take him anywhere between 30 minutes and five hours
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...30_964x584.jpg
He said his passion for photography was strong enough that when he finally gets the shot he wants it is worth all the 'frustrating' moments

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...ar_sprawli.jpg
Labour of love: Phillips drove thousands of miles in search of new locations, and visited and re-visited the more known spots to get the most spectacular light
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...ar_sprawli.jpg
Gently rolling hills: The region, when bathed in a soft, sunset glow, looks almost like a painting. Farmhouses nestle in valleys, dotted around the bucolic landscape

Highly dangerous gas levels have been reported at the eruption site, so scientists are urging visitors to be equipped with gas sensors and gas masks
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...RBUNGA_ICE.jpg
What a view: Photographers are capturing breathtaking scenes as molten lava is spewed more than 30 metres into the air during a dramatic volcanic eruption

Raw beauty: Lava spews out of a mile-long fissure that slices through the Holuhraun lava field north of Bardarbunga, Iceland's largest volcano
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...RBUNGA_ICE.jpg
The lava flowing from the fissure is known as pahoehoe lava, a Hawaiian term, and it is forming slabs on the surface
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...RBUNGA_ICE.jpg
Incredible scene: Scientists say the temperature of the lava is about 1200C at the centre of a fissure near the rumbl

Jetskiers pull alongside the surfers as they race down the huge swells, which grow bigger in Autumn as the winds coming in from the Atlantic start to pick up
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...Media_MONS.jpg
The highest wave ever ridden was recorded in the area last year when US surfer Garrett McNamara managed to stay on top of a 100ft swell in the region
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...Media_MONS.jpg
The wild seas can prove dangerous though and local emergency services have had to rescue surfers knocked unconscious by the crashing waves in the past
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...Media_MONS.jpg
The area attracts surfers from all around the world at this time of year, with some travelling from as far away as Australia and Hawaii to enjoy the giant waves
