That's an awesome shot!

I know exactly what you mean about eastern Colorado. I used to drive through the Julesburg area a lot many years ago. It was desolate, with rolling hills and often tornadoes. At a minimum all kinds of wild weather. I have to laugh about it but I passed through there this June because I had a crazy impulse to take Amtrak to Chicago and back from Green River Utah. Passing through that area at dawn, right as the sun came up there were spectacular skies, just what I remembered.

Ohhhhh that is a menacing beauty of an image! Looks as if there was some type of eye forming over that farm, wow if I lived there and looked up I would have thought the end could be near!

Awesome!

Truly mesmerizing, as are all really fine storm photos. I always wonder what the shot would look like taken from a vantage point by the buildings...

Spectacular storm clouds and image, even more so with the inclusion of the structure to give us a sense of scale.

Amazing image that captured the power of mother nature especially when viewing the contrasting size of the circulating clouds over the farm. Truly spectacular!

Hi Craig, thanks for your kind words. Sometimes the most desolate places can foster the most beautiful nature images. I always look forward to photographing June storms in Colorado for that very reason! -Mike

Hi Bill, thanks for the comments. Actually, it would not look as good, the closer you get to the storm. There is an optimal distance from the storm at which you can get this incredible view.. usually anywhere from 6 to 12 miles from the storm itself. You wouldn't see the twisting, striated, curved structure higher up in the storm from closer in as the lower level clouds would obscure the view. -Mike

Tuan, thanks. Yeah, I agree on the distant farm adding scale.. I thought that was important as well. -Mike
