Is this a scary scene, or what? If you want to see this before the tornado Click Here. But.....it isn't real. I cropped it, added the funnel cloud, and darkened the picture, for no other reason than to see what I could come up with.

Hey Jim if you lived here in West Texas you would think that tornado was real we come oh so close to so many of those it makes you really think.
One year my family and I went on a trip to Oklahoma while we were gone a tornado hit Amarillo Texas where we lived at the time, took our windows out, got our roof but the huse was still standing, the liquor store miles down the road the roof was lifted off all the liquor ottle were empty but the lids were still on the bottles, everyone said the tornao was thirsty. On our way back home from Oklahoma the trnado hit Oklahoma so we missed it both ways we felt so blessed.
Great shot guy.
Take care and god bless you

Hi Jim, I guess you wanted to scare everyones pants off with "I just got hit by the big T" I truly do like the earlier shot so much better. I like those down home farm shots. Hope you got a root cellar!...Big Grin ...but I do want you to stay safe.
Hope you are having a marvelous spring minus tornadoes...Diane

It's quite a sinister-looking scene Jim! Pretty darn good! But I'll be honest with you: while the tornado effect is good on upper left, in the V-shape (funnel) you can tell the "artificial" nature of it! All the same, a nice work! Well done!

Yikes!!!!!!!! that is one frightening scene, for some of us who have been near those bigtime "T"s....I remember moving from Louisiana to Texas for a short while, and as we drove into Ft Worth, we spotted about six of those funnels all over the place ahead of us, did we really want to move there??!!! We pulled under an overpass along with many other cars, and found out later that was one of the worst places we could have gone!! But I DO like the effect of what you did with your photo..and even more glad you told me it wasn't a real funnel. Whew....nicely done...verena

nice manipulation. It really adds a sense of fear and wonder to a dramatic image. I've seen many tornados (on TV) and can really relate to this idea of yours. good stuff.
