Tube. Tornado in Iowa. Cherry picking a single week from an entire year and expecting to witness a tornado would yield extremely low odds, especially when travelling across the pond. It was therefore massively rewarding to get one. We were struggling to keep up with a storm moving at 50mph when all of a sudden a horizontal funnel cloud rolled in the skies above our heads. We struggled to get into a decent viewing position, and when we did the tornado was stretched all the way to the ground. It was only on the ground for a few seconds and I was lucky to get the farm building within the frame to add some interest and scale.
What a stunning capture and strong image this is. The power, structure and colours could not have been better. It was indeed as wild as it looked. It's not nice when you get caught inside of one these beasts. The ferocious winds and hail can tear a car (or house) to pieces.
