[QUOTE="IluvABbeef, post: 777594, member: 3739"] I know I haven't been posting pictures in a while, but here goes. [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF1077.jpg[/img] Really nasty storm that rolled through. This storm (on Aug 16) actually produced two tornadoes: one just a few miles north and west of us, and another one north of the town of Westlock. According to the local newspaper, the one north of us wrecked a man's house and caused one injury when a wall fell on top of someone. [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF1162-1.jpg[/img] [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF1163.jpg[/img] This one is of another earlier supercell (taken on July 31) that I swear produced a small tornado just north-west of the house, and from the dust in the second shot, it was right in our field/pasture. This same storm produced another tornado north-west of us as well, but only a small one, and another funnel cloud that I actually watched transform (without the help of a camera :mad: ) just outside the upstairs west-bedroom window. But these two shots still scare me, but fortunately this funnel cloud I snapped was very short-lived, so there was no need to go hide in the basement. But still... :help: :shock: Now for some lightning shots I got last night (my camera, on the contunious long-period shooting, only shoots 1.4 fps, so I only got 1/10 of the shots I would've loved to get): [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF1162.jpg[/img] Cloud-to-cloud, but picture didn't turn out as well as I wanted it to. [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF1976.jpg[/img] This one was like looking into a welding light [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF2208.jpg[/img] [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF2339.jpg[/img] Overhead-cloud-to-cloud lightning that just lit up the farm in just 1/3 of a second. [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF2685.jpg[/img] This is THE luckiest shot I ever got, I didn't use the continuous function this time, only timing as far as reaction time goes. And finally, [img]http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s235/IluvABbeef/DSCF1179.jpg[/img] A beautiful sunset (from a different night) as a kind of end to the stormy post. Hope you enjoyed it. :) [/QUOTE]
