Huge downburst. One hit near my home. It steel structures. One steel billboard was bent double. Trees were snapped off near the ground.
Beautiful and scary.

(58,162 posts)i`m pretty sure it is. the small trees in the one photo really looks like infrared film but it`s probably a digital shot. i used to shoot a lot of infrared back in the day but i think they pulled the infrared film from the market.

I just mounted an old K Mart 28 mm on my film camera. After the storms pass, I will shoot some film.

If the VA comes through with my hearing aids, I'd have a lifetime supply of Zinc Air batteries for an old Minolta.
