The pictures I linked to didn't show up in my last post for some reason. Anyhow, here are my faves from North Dakota:

For me it has to be the only tornado of the year for our chasing team, which just happened to be the Campo, CO, tornado of May 31.

I was shooting video, so these pics were taken by Helen, my girlfriend.

Only good shots this year came on my chase with Brandon Sullivan & Jesse Risley June 17th in southern MN.

I can't look at these pictures enough, though...

A couple favorites from this year...how I wish I had better equipment back in the 2002-2004 time frame...

I love Bill Harks shot of the church and tornado from May 24th. This is mine from a good mile or two further east and a minute or so before Bill's shot.

This was shot south of Kiester MN looking north towards this ground hugging meso with multiple vorticies.. The lighting was pretty incredible from this perspective.

Id gladly give them both up to have been on the Campo storm. Those pics just amaze me every time I see them.

I need to put the video camera down and pick up the dslr more often once the tornado touches down. When there is no tornado in progress I'm all about "oh, let me shoot a still of that!" but once a stupid tornado enters the picture I can't bring myself to get my face out of the video camera.

Favorite still image is probably from July 22nd in southern Wisconsin.

My first-ever ST photo post--EF4 tornado amazing enough to overcome my shyness about being a newb. Campbell, MN, August 7, 2010. I should add it was Chad Cowan who got us to this storm.

Great Year!

I would have to agree with many of the previous posts and go with either the Campo or Albert Lea beauties! :)
