Now that has to be one of the freakiest tornado pictures I've ever seen. That thing is dangling out to the right with clear sky above and below it. A classic picture!

That is such a surreal picture. Must be right when the lightening struck.

That is the way it was the night of the Dunwoody tornado in 98', the lightning was so constant, continuous, and bright that it was like someone had turned on a light switch outside. Incredible photo!

Amazing photo-I was in the Georgia Dome when it came through. Thank God it was north of us and we just felt some ''breeze" over the roof, from the peripheral winds, as it passed by between us and the CNN building.

I just saw this photo on another site and it linked to flickr. I'm recently moved from the ATL as of last July and I never heard of any such thing occuring. This is masterful though, just brilliant and powerful.
