Description Tonight three storms got together and decided to pound east texas all at the same time, my buddy being the weather buff that he is was watchin the cells on his computer and came and told me to get my camera so we walked outside and i set up, sure enough, in came a huge storm that sent us running, luckly right after i had filled my flash card. This is one of three shots ill probally upload.

*updated* put a new twist on an old favorite what do ya think?

Wow. You rarely see those colors together in a natural shot. Great job. Maybe might have been nice to have a guy waving or leaning against one of those poles.
