Tornado was a bit close

Their was no damage to our house or anything, it was like a few miles away. My wife and 2 girls were down in the basement all worried. I got a little bit excited and checked out the back door, I saw the clouds forming and I was like oooohhhh I need to get me camera, seemed like it took forever to find my canon rebel-XT with the 18-55 lens on it, not enough time to change the lens. I get back to the back door open it up and by that time it was a full funnel. Took like 20 plus shots from the time I got to the back door to the time it was over. I did not go in the basement at all, did turn and run but had to see if this was going to turn our way or just fizzle out, so went back, just opened up the back door and took the shots, no time to adjust the camera to make it look better. Just did what I could. Thanks so much for the responses.

Chuck Norris could have destroyed this with his bare hands.

Just looking at the photos makes me want to run!!!
I'd never have the guts to stick around and shoot these!
