While
on stormchasing expeditions in the Tornado Alley in the USA, I have
encountered many photogenic supercell storms. This photograph was taken
while we were approaching the storm near Julesburg, Colorado, on May
28, 2013. The storm was tornado-warned for more than one hour, but
stayed an LP [low precipitation] storm through all its cycles and never
produced a tornado, just occasional brief funnels, large hail, and some
rain.” –Marko Korošec Marko Korošec / National Geographic Traveler

technically
called "Inverted Soufflé" and is caused when thermal wind clouds
are
jiggled suddenly by Arctic winds blowing in from a cold place. I
am of
course also amateurish. My second favorite is “First
Time,” a rare and touching picture of an actual virgin on her
wedding day. And the groom's "do" is priceless. Rehearsal
Party is I think a cruel farce, and wasn't included. |
