tornado picture...


Here is that now famous picture of the tornado as it passed through Atlanta. Obviously the tornado is past the city at this point since you can see the buildings, etc. It is probably near the end of its life/track.

Here is the information on who took the picture, etc as printed on AJC.com...

Standing roughly a mile from downtown Atlanta, photographer Shane Durrance caught this image Friday night as the tornado struck (It's the bushy looking cloud mass just to the right of the tower with the illuminated top). He had been shooting lightning strikes from his sixth-floor balcony at the 1016 Lofts when he captured the image. Durrance, who grow up in Phenix City, Ala., has lived in Atlanta since 2000. He specializes in advertising, fashion, celebrity and wedding photography.
