Yup...this is an unbelieveable picture. I actually bought a picture of this from Doug. Good stuff.

After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.
I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.
For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.
From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.
Sincerely, Jeff D.

I have to agree with Bob H on this, the twin tornadoes of the Palm Sunday outbreak were incredible. This was the defining shot of the outbreak.

Most published? It will probably be an older shot from the 60s or 70s when the number of chasers was much smaller not to mention far fewer people had cameras. Hence, less media to play with so 1 picture or video could have made every news media tv station and newspaper. I would guess a video or camera shot from the Palm Sunday outbreak in 1965.

If you don't mean strictly photos, then the answer to this (speaking from a recognition of what the majority of the populace knows and talks about by sight) is the McConnell AFB footage, hands down. There isn't another twister shot I've seen on TV more, and there isn't one I've talked to friends and family about that they recognize even close to as often as "that one on that air force base in Kansas." In my mom's mind it's what chasing and filming every single tornado is like, even though the guy who filmed it was just an Airman in the right place at the right time.

I have to that is is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen! What is the story behind the picture? Where was it taken and when? What kind of camera did you use and what lens? How can I buy a print? I want to frame it. Feel free to PM me if you want.
