Your Best Tornado shot to date

[Melanie Kern-Favilla]

As the season gets close to winding down, I figured I'd start a thread to post your best tornado photo of this year. Please include date and general location.

June 17, 2010 - Albert Lea, MN

 

[Chris Heater]

Mine would have to be our April 24th shot. Same tornado that hit Yazoo City, MS nearly ran us over. Accidentally got within 200ft of the tornado as it crossed the road, as we were trying to escape. Definably won't be forgetting that day anytime soon!

Where's the photo? Since this is what the thread is about.

I'd have to do a freeze frame. Its from video footage I got

 

[Dean Baron]

No pictures, only video grabs so far. This is the multi vortex north of Leaf Valley, MN on 6/17. This is also the beginning of the deadly EF4 that was on the ground for ~35 miles and hit Almora. Really hoping I get a real picture of a tornado at some point this season:

5/10/10 - Wakita, OK

 

[Ryan Wichman]

5/10/10 Wakita, OK

It's the best shot I could get from the back seat, but I thought it came out as a unique perspective.

 

[Dann Cianca]

This is Campo from my angle.

 

[Scott Weberpal]

Can't decide whether the telephoto or wide-angle version of the first substantial tornado near Bowdle, SD is the best...

 

[Danny Neal]

Both shots from 6/17/10 - Minnesota


Conger, MN - Structure w/ wedge tornado underneath.



I added this one as well. While the above showed the wedge.... Once we got right up under it, it revealed this. I had a lot of great shots this year, but this one from 1.5 miles away to the south just stands out to me. Especially with the satellite.

 

[Skip Talbot]

I have to pick just one? I can't decide between May 22 one mile north of Bowdle, SD:

Or several miles southwest of Albert Lea, MN on June 17:

 

[Wesley Luginbyhl]

Really didn't get alot of tornado shots I am thrilled with after April 22nd, so mine is from then. Goodnight, TX.

 

[Adam Lucio]

My camera sucks so I should be ashamed to post such low quality pictures in here but alas, here they are.

5/22 - first tornado of the day [before the bowdle wedge]

6-10 Deer Trail tornado #1 - Amazing structure too.

6-17 West of Albert Lea, MN

Not sure why they always come out blury...perhaps I should start taking photos with a tripod as well.

 

[Scott Hammel]

Campo, CO - 5/31/10

 

[Dann Cianca]

Campo, CO - 5/31/10

Yeah... I couldn't decide between that one either. LOl.
