Title: Cool pictures........
Post by: pamsback on June 09, 2009, 09:22:46 AM
  I know most of us take really cool pictures from time to time and thought a thread showin them would be kinda interesting.
I took this picture of the sun comin up thru the haze and rain a few days ago and thought it looked cool.

Pam, that's beautiful. Great perspective, carries you right into the picture. I like the first one best. Did you ever take a photography class?

 No Diane but I wish I had. I just try to get the picture I see and some times it works and sometimes it doesn't cause I really don't know what I'm doin lol.

I like the grey one the best for some reason.

Now that's a very scary picture that Chuck took.... If you look real close, you can just make out the profile of Barrack Hussein Obama.  That cloud seems to be moving westward, too.... saw it yesterday as I was watering my petunia's.... it looked like it was heading for California.

Not a very good picture, since it was taken with a cellphone, but it's another weather picture.... this was at about 3:15 p.m. on the drive home.  Scary!

Warphs got petunias?

And if it is headed west which never happens it will get you before it will get me.  Besides with the rotation of the planet weather (i.e. storms) move to the east with a slight exception of the summertime monsoon rains up from Baja California moving from south to north until they hit the jet stream and turn east.  Arizona is delightful this time of year with the afternoon rains.  Some of these turn into real gullywashers.

I love the pictures also.  Maybe there should be a separate category just for pictures.

Just some pictures.  Clouds before the rain started falling.

Power poles that was blown over by straight line winds ( 95 foot poles for over four miles of them).

Cars trapped when the power poles in front and behind them, the poles didn't hit any of the cars, lucky people.

Dale, what stretch of rod was that with the power poles down?  Jeepers --- that would scare the britches right off you if you were in any of the vehicles. wouldn't it?

This the power line that runs through the east side of Wal Mart parking lot in Independence and along Peter Pan Road to the north.  The storm came through when we eating over Cherryvale and when we tried to get home they wouldn't let us through.  So we had to drive around the end of the power line and in by the Elk City Lake.  This happened in August of 2006.

This same thing happened in February when we had that strange, "too early in the season" tornado in Edmond, OK.  People  were driving down the street and the power poles fell and trapped 6 or 7 cars.  Miraculously, no one was injured by the live wires or the falling poles, but it was a very scary situation until they could be rescued.
