After seeing the great tornado and storm photos posted recently, I'd thought I'd share a few from my May chase in the Plains. 95% of tornadoes aren't photogenic (dark, low contrast, rain wrapped or at night) but the storms are something else!
First up is a ominous looking supercell over Yuma, Colorado. When we wandered around the left side of the house, we spotted a tornado about a mile away. But by the time we were in position, it vanished.
Second is at sunset in Coldwater, Kansas. The yellow was like nothing I'd ever seen before. We had about three minutes to shoot before getting nailed by hail and a downpour.
The last shot is Leota, Kansas. We didn't drive past the stop sign on the left for obvious reasons.
