The storms we were chasing were Supercells, capable of producing grapefruit sized hail, and spectacular tornadoes; they were 50 miles wide and reached as high as 65,000 ft. into the atmosphere. These clouds were so large that they had the capability of blocking all daylight, making it very dark and ominous standing under them.

Clouds have a beauty that is both magical and fearful and Camille certainly captures its mystery and power.
Personally I have always felt clouds are messengers and we are still trying to figure out what they are telling us.

fantastic pictures .... congratulations
Stunning....
The top photograph seems both very dynamic yet at the same time, very calm. I also like how she resisted the temptation to go over the top on them. I think some photographers these days would have used too much HDR and/or over saturated them.
wow...these are absolutely amazing. i feel like i'm caught in a twister!
the images are so beautiful, congratulations, very good post.
