An email crossed my desk today with a variety of photos claimed to be from Hurrican Katrina. Most of them were similar to the one at the right. If this doesn’t look like a hurricane (or the gulf coast) to you, you’re right. It’s actually a photo taken by storm chaser Mike Hollingshead in Iowa.
This sample is an amazing photo, to be sure, but if you really want to blow your socks off, visit his digital photography page. Be sure to also read his accounts of storm chasing that accompany the photos. It’s in these accounts that you can see the higher res images. Amazing stuff…
