Artist's Comments

The title pretty much says it all. This is a panorama was manually stitched together from nine vertical photos at six megapixels apiece. An hour and a half later, the resulting Photoshop file has a resolution of 32 megapixels and is 207 MB. Yikes.

We chased this high-precipitation storm just north of Scottsbluff, Nebraska, on June 23. What an awesome storm.

Edit: Holy cow, a daily deviation! Thank you very much, garrit, for featuring this piece. I cannot respond to everyone's comments, so this edit serves as my overall thank-you to everyone for the favorites and kind words. Thank you!

I kept a blog during this week of storm chasing. The entry for this particular day can be found here: [link]

If you liked this shot, you may enjoy these other photos taken during that same week: [link] , [link] , [link] , and [link] , to link a few. I was with the Silver Lining Tours chase tour group, run by the excitable Roger Hill. He's been chasing as long as anybody, and is extremely knowledgable and passionate about severe storms. I highly reccomend this chase tour.

I'll try to get some dual-monitor and triple-monitor wallpaper versions up in the near future.

Oh Noes by ~Bucky2K It is an amazing panorama photo, manually stitched together from 9 photos. It shows an amazing detail of the clouds in an approaching storm. The light and composition are fantastic and the whole photo has an amazing atmosphere. (Featured by `garrit)

I don't have a dA prints account, but if you name a size I'll gladly get a print and sell you one via PayPal.

You can be! I took this photo while chasing with Roger Hill and Silver Lining Tours, [link] . This is, by far, the best chase tour group out there. Best week of my life. Check it out.
