The tornado I got a shot of a while back

[morrijas]

I did not have much time to take these shots, my family was in the basement and I was running around trying to find my camera. After I found it I got some shots of the tornado. This tornado did not hit us but was for sure something to see. Here are 2 shots of it from it starting to full tornado.

Thanks, wanted to put on my 70-200 lens but did not think I had to much time to do that so I had to use the lens that was on the camera, also hands were shaking just a tad bit

LOL, really? You didn't have much time? Is that because....there was a freakin' TORNADO coming toward you?!?!
I have had my camera WITH me before during storms that were spawning tornadoes, and even then, I've wondered if I'd actually have the nerve to stand my ground and take the shot..but I definitely would NOT have the nerve to see it, and then go *searching* for my camera! Not unless I was gonna grab an extra pair of pants to change into first, because that would scare the **** outta me!

This was right outside my backdoor, but I figured I will only get one chance at this so I went for it and this was what I got. I do not know if I really stood my ground, I just wanted to get the pics of this thing. I was scared I will say that but I felt I had to get this shot in. I thought I would post the tornado just starting out to full blown.
