Life In Tornado Alley

[clickin girl]

Hello everyone! I live in the Texas Panhandle which is right in the middle of an area called Tornado Alley. This area sees more severe weather and tornadoes than any where else in the United States. Normally our severe weather season does not start until May but we had our first severe storm with an alleged tornado touchdown outside our town last week. I am an avid lightening photographer, and am always like a kid at Christmas when storm season approaches! I went out and got a couple of shots but my little boy was sick so I could not stay out long. Thanks For Looking!

Cool looking shots but they are a bit small to see properly

Yeah, Alf. I have trouble downloading here. The only way I can get my photos to post properly is to upload from my personal gallery at Smugmug. If I do them any bigger they won't upload! I just get a red X.

Nice images much better to see.
The first one is amazing are those hills/mountains and the fact you can see the starts too is great

Thanks Alf! That is actually the top of the thunderheads and the lightening in the clouds! Yes I loved the fact that you could see the stars and the storm together, thought it looked pretty cool!
