Skybomb

I shot this supercell in April of 2006 in rural Kansas. This was taken with an extremely wide angle lens; the clouds at the top of the frame are actually nearly overhead. My friend Josh is the foreground, snapping away. This storm later put down a tornado off and on for a good hour.

In the Storm Chaser photo essay.
