This is by far the best tornado pix I've ever seen. It perfectly captures the last serene seconds for the viewer before total devastation hits. It's dramatic, beautiful, captivating, mesmerizing, and downright amazing!! And I can tell you Popular Photography has no idea of what they are seeing -- they haven't had a photo as good as this in their mag in the last 20 years -- and when they get it submitted they give it 3rd prize! ( I can tell you Time Mag and Nat Geo would know better) This is museum quality collectible art (and I'm not talking some squeedunk minor city museum either) please send this to the photography curator at MOMA. ( Museum of Modern Art, NYC) They'll know what it is!
