Tornado Warning

    We had a big storm system come through on Wednesday evening. I didn't even know there was a tornado warning in effect. I am not sure if this was the tornado that touched down or not, either way it was scary looking!

      I was looking for thunderstorms on June 4 and found this. I thought it was so unusual that I looked at your other photos. Your photos are powerful and superb. Nothing like living on the prairie! Some of your storm shots are palpably real to me. Looks like the farm where I was raised.

      Great Shot!!!! We have had some pretty crazy weather this spring. I bet you didn't stay out much longer after you took this.

      Nick and I were standing out in the yard searching the sky when we heard about the tornado warning, but we didn't see anything that looked like this. This is awesome! Seems funny that we are so close to each other, but you have such a better perspective on the sky. I wish they hadn't built that house across from us!!!
