Brant:
All three look really nice. I am traveling, and can only view with my phone, and they look great. I need to view these beauties large when I get home later.

It looks like you got the right time of night to get that nice night blue sky. Is that the moon rising/setting?

Thanks Pat. That is a moon setting. These are all photos from day 1 of the trip. A couple more days for me to process. I could go back to Arizona several times before I even come close to running out of scenery to take pictures. A very photogenic State.

One of my daughters just moved to Phoenix, so I think I will be getting an opportunity to see Arizona.

Indeed.....but she may wonder why on all your "visits" you don't want to stay with her in Phoenix.

Great pictures Brant. I especially like the first one.

A simple one from today.

Thanks Jayson. It's a simple one because I just had to go out there and take the shot. The place is certainly something special. Your pictures of the tornado aftermath are really impressive. We don't see this in Europe.

Saturday I had the opportunity to travel by Pilger, NE and see the devastation from the 2 EF-4 tornados that scoured the earth. They still have most of the highways closed off and are only allowing volunteers into the town. I stopped along some of the section line roads to take a couple pictures before moving on. I couldn't stay long since I had a session I was traveling to.

This is the from the 2nd tornado that struck the feed lot. I attempted a panorama of 14 images to try and capture all of the damage as this moved across this area. The fire on the right is them burning the wooden debris from the trees and homes. Moving from left from the little road to right in the frame, you can see the path of dirt the tornado left as it ripped all the corn from the field.



Here is the town. You can see the whole east side of the town has been demolished. The building on the far right was an old school building they used as a middle school. Even it's brick and mortar was no match for the winds this monster was pushing.



Here is the path of the one that struck town. It's amazing how it can pull the grass and corn right from the ground.

Great photos....awful event. The destructive force is amazing.

Here's one from two days ago. The weather had been bad the whole day with a lot of rain. Then, a few minutes before it was too late, the sun finally made an apparition.
