Stormy weather is our passion. We photograph it because we wish to express to others what we feel standing under the storm, whipped by the wind, and drenched by the rain. Add drama to your life, bring our storms into your home as art quality prints!
Elephant Trunk Tornado – Campo, Colorado – May 31, 2010
Artist: Brian Morganti
When I woke up in Oklahoma City and looked at weather data, I knew instantly where I wanted to go...Baca County located in far southeast Colorado. While having lunch in Guymon, Oklahoma I could see the tops of a storm well off to our northwest with an incredibly long anvil that stretched for over 100 miles eastward. It was still fairly early in the day but knew I had to get our Tempest Tour group there as fast as safely possible. I intercepted the storm just south of Campo, Colorado and witnessed several small tornadoes off to the west, but the best was still to come in the hours ahead. I then followed this isolated supercell for hours as it very slowly drifted across the plains of extreme southeast Colorado. I watched in awe from a high point as the initial tornado formed rapidly from the very high base of this storm, and incredible sight for all to behold.
