Looking to the west at a HP (High-Precipitation) supercell thunderstorm with a tornado and wall cloud in western Texas. The tornado is in the center just above the two trees that are close together. The wall cloud is the lowered cloud bass everything is rotating counter clock wise, around the tornado. The cloud bass in front is moving from left to right and in the rear from right to lift. Not a close up (zoom) but a wide angle. Hope that gives some feel to the storm. Shortly after this shot heavy precipitation and very large damaging hail envelops the region of rotation and the tornado Stop by and take a look. Best wishes, Ken

I thought you are a brave man.

 

Hello Kenneth, that's a scary folder.

 

Very best wishes for 2006.

 

Pete

Thanks

Kenneth, this is so awesome.

Really awesome when view large. The tornado looks real scary. Are you risking your life to take this? ;-)

Great great capture. It surely needs some strong nerves to get. Love it. Rgds.

Nice shot Ken. This is much more impressive when viewed larger.

Tu tema en los cielos exelente fotografia feliz ano 2006

Nice shot, Kenneth. Unfortunately, here in Alabama our tornadoes are rain-shrouded. Probably the only way for me to get a shot of one is after it has already blown my house away. Very ominous feel to this shot. You captured the storm very well.

Awesome! Very omnimous landscape Ken.

Nice landscape and less nice weather (nicert to look at than to be in). Horizon looks a bit distorted (lens, or real?).

...Wishing You All Good Things For 2006. Best Wishes To Your Family Also. Hope You Have A Great And Safe Year Chasing. As always, here you have a great photo of the awesome fury of nature. Best Wishes. Sincerely, Kelvin.

I think I have said it before but your passion comes through in your photography. Just one word - inspiring comes to mind. All the best for the new year. I look forward to more essential images such as this in 2006.

Your passion for "chasing" is well portrayed in this dramatic image, a storm like this has it's own beauty and power. The world has had some doozie's this last year. Be careful but keep shooting. Hope your New Year is full of exciting adventures.

A powerful and dramatic image! Congratulations and Happy New Year! Best, Fred

Great use of panorama to give sweep to this awesome spectacle. Happy New Year to you and you family Ken. Hope 2006 will bring you some good chasing.

Unbelieveable image. Great effort to make this shot.

Ken: Your work is inspiring. I like the "ocean wave" piece you have captured above. Keep it going. Having crossed Texas quite a few times, I remain amazed by Texas' unique cloud activity. Sure is nice to see some as skilled as yourself capturing the moments.

Nice eerie storm shot.

Beautiful colors in an awesome storm!

realy a great photograph.

 

Wish you a very very HAPPY NEW YEAR 2006 and wish you a complete success in future life....
