How beautifully frightening! Where were you standing just before the devastation?
Well I was in my driver's seat with my window clamp mounted to my window. That's where I shoot storms 99% of the time. It wasn't too devastating, as most storms aren't. I think it produced some baseball size hail earlier. It was really really windy around this time or just before. Wind really rocking the car in the inflow, along with a lot of dust. At the time of the photo I'd say the storm was entering its downward trend. Twilight is just an amazing time to shoot storms, and this was actually in the last moments of any twilight and actually really dark out. -
