Huge Photography Competition!!!

[Adam Adkins]

This past year, me and the 4Runner went storm chasing. I made an incredible photograph on the trip, but softball sized hail caused $14,000 worth of damage.

Long story short, this very photograph has been selected into the top 10 of a very prestigious national photography competition. The first prize includes top of the line photography equipment which I desperately need to help jumpstart my career (I am 17 years old). It would be such a huge deal if I were to place highly in this competition. It is just incredible to me that the photograph I had been lamenting so much was selected for this competition.

This means so much to me you have NO idea!! Please, vote for Adam Adkins, "Green Supercell" in this photography competition. I am hoping for as many votes as possible, and be sure to select mine as the favorite at the end.

Jason: Yes, it was that day! That was the most incredible storm I had ever seen - I had never really witnessed a true HP supercell. It was also a very scary experience. I was driving and then suddenly the windshield shattered from hail, glass was in my eyes, and I pulled over while the car was destroyed. Needless to say I have been forbidden to chase with one of my parents' vehicles ever again. And it wiped out 100% of my cash. But ya, and you also got a great shot from that day I see!

 

[Mike Ridgeway]

Ya got my vote too. And I could use a new camera!
