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've got two that i really like, but the first one might win because the picture quality. For some reason I had some real issues with noise on the second image. I tried a little de-noise, and it looks a little bit better. And yes the first image, that is rain that you see blowing in the image, not hail. Enjoy!

2 photos of the May 19/2010 Leedey, OK tornado. It was amazing watching this from a TCU to tornado in the field just to our north.

Definitely my pics of the 06/17 tornado near Grand Forks, ND. I sacrificed some of the video of this tornado when I shut off the camcorder to pull out my Rebel T2I and take a still.
I just wish I had time that day to tripod the camera and attach the telephoto lens, but nature doesn't wait for anyone.

Wanted to add one more from May 23 near Clayton NM and Texline, TX of the long track tornado. I always wanted to capture something like this, so when the time came, I choked and didn't get my camera settings right. But, after alot of processing and some HDR work, I got a decent image out of a poor shot. Sorry for the noisiness. I thought it an interesting pic and wanted to share.

My 2 favs for the year:
First picture is my panoramic from April 22, east of Groom, TX. Sucks that the winds were howling, kept moving me around and I couldn't get the shots lined up good enough, causing that misalignment in the middle. Still one of my favs.
Of course this picture, the one I'm going to beat to death. May 24, 2010 just north of Spearman, TX. This was a shot I've always wanted to get, one of those "dream shots" that come once in a lifetime.
Just for good measure, an honorable mention to my twin nighttime tornadoes near Stratford, TX on May 18, 2010. It was my first time attempting to photograph a tornado at night.
Not bad for a $250 camera, eh?
