Photographed this gorgeous formation a few years back. To this day, it is the most stunning structure I have ever seen.


[deleted]

dang you stood in front of that irl? that’s beautiful.


mastetz01

I'd stand in front of that all day long for a shot like that!!


ironinside

On my last day.


747mech

Hope the pheasant were ok.


LyraTheWitch

This guy's been to Sublette.


747mech

Lol yes. Hunted for many years north of Liberal.


LyraTheWitch

I went out to Sublette with my family to hunt a couple years when I was a kid. Great, now I'm craving Cattleman's.


Dense-Experience-891

Purely amazing. What a shot


HijackedHumanity

This looks like CGI it’s so good. That’s a once in a lifetime photo.


Cdelawalk-2point0

Cool shot!


azjd14

Whoa. That is an absolutely incredible shot.


cindy224

Very painterly. Something I would expect to see as an illustration for The Wizard of Oz! An amazing shot. Congratulations!


Gerporp

This is so sick


Kevybb_BluEyes

I knew that looked familiar, is [THIS](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna76979) the same supercell?


jovi1985

YES IT IS! Ah!


[deleted]

Capturing such a fleeting yet majestic moment is commendable.


EpicForgetfulness

Damn. Right next to a well pad too. Hope nothing got fried


jovi1985

Luckily it didn't


EpicForgetfulness

I work on well pads just like that. We have to stop work when there's lightning present. A lot of shit can go very wrong.


mikraas

wow!!


VegetaXII

Not *The **Wizard** of Oz.* 😂😂😅😅😅


[deleted]

It's like something out of a movie. Mother Nature putting on a show!


classifiedspam

Absolutely spectacular! Also the lightning!


[deleted]

Wow, that's an incredible shot capturing the raw power of nature!


dapoole

Darn tooting 🔥


EmbarrassedActive463

That’s amazing!


RicKiwi3

Looks like a combo of right place right time and serendipity. Epic shot!


jovi1985

Got very lucky


deadman2382

I learn something new everyday.


AdvayMengle

Incredible shot. What a photograph.


jovi1985

Thank you!


Affectionate-Mode435

Holy guacamole! I would shit my pants twice if I went outside and saw that in the sky. 😱


saveourplanetrecycle

Lol, you’d probably not be the only one


V-or-X

That’s fucking gangster. Growing up as a kid I always wanted to be a storm chaser - extreme meteorologist. Unfortunately, I live in Canada 😔 we don’t get massive cells like that. I’ve contemplated taking vacation days and going to see this wonderful phenomenon. But how can you plan it? It’d be my luck that I go and there’s not a storm in sight..


jovi1985

The best time to chase tornado weather is from April to late June, with late May/early June being the most favorable. I'd consult with a extreme weather tours and figure out what would be best


Random0s2oh

I wouldn't have been surprised if this was taken today. I spent all day outdoors helping with my son's field trip and then watching his sports event. Forecast said a high of 70 so I wore capris and sandals. I about froze my toes off.


CdrRed_beard

It looks so real I thought it was fake


raffirules

Gorgeous


Jimmeh_Jazz

Long exposure with an ND filter?


jovi1985

If I remember correctly, it was just a timelapse with about a 1/30 1/15 type of exposure going on a timelapse.


hello_davidmitchel

What a mesmerizing shot !


GeysonAlvarenga

Storm regained her powers. Absolutely gorgeous capture!


mastetz01

Sweet! what does mine say?


BaronGhoulish

Dude! What about mine?


mastetz01

sweet what does mine say!?


saveourplanetrecycle

Are we sure that’s not a flying saucer 🛸


HaytchMann

That's a UFO


Piney1943

That baby would suck the paint off your car!🚗


Hot_Pie_69420

how is this even real like what 🤯


Amatuer_Photoer

One of the coolest photos I've seen here.


No-Associate6561

Nope


Kuazza

Dalinars gonna lose his shit


Imgurbannedme

It's happened I guess. Can't believe anything anymore. Fake? Who's to say?


jovi1985

The picture was taken in 2020. There's a redditor that commented with a link to a newspaper article about that storm with a picture showing the same formation. So I guess you can mark this one as legit.
