It has been a wild day here in Illinois today! Tornadoes,thunderstorms,hail,rain,you name it.
I feel very fortunate,I still have a home. Many people have lost theirs. I hope the rest of the week
is more kind to everyone.Power was out in my area for over four hours. I have a whole house generator
so we had that covered.

Excellent nature shot, that weather system passed by us around 3 AM but the damage was very minimal which really surprise me with the high winds.
Pin sharp image.

I have been thinking about you and your family all night. So glad I checked pbase before going to bed. Nice to know you and your loved ones are safe. You managed to post a beautiful photo despite the harrowing day.

This is terrible to experience such severe weather so late into the year. Glad to know that your family is safe and that hopefully you will return to more seasonal weather immediately, Jim. A lovely image..
Neil Marcus18-Nov-2013 02:05
Glad that you're safe Jim. It is harrowing isn't it.
Your image is one of your best closeups. Beautiful tones, incredible detail and perfect composition. "V"

Classic Coffman composition under what I have just learned must have been trying circumstances. I'll stop complaining about the measly 3" of snow we got. Stay safe, my friend.
Gary Hudes18-Nov-2013 01:58
Glad to hear your home is intact and I hope the weather is clearing. Autumn leaves are beautiful as you captured so well. A gentler side of nature!

Wow, I had no idea that the weather was so wild down your way. Glad you are safe. You've certainly posted a gorgeous photo with the raindrops, and who'd know that the weather was anything but gentle from this shot! V
Sam Rua18-Nov-2013 01:28
Terrible news about the severe weather, Jim. Glad you were spared. The serenity in this capture belies the turmoil that must abound.
Mary Hamilton18-Nov-2013 01:21
Yes, the reports coming in from the Mid-West are heartbreaking.You made beautiful art in spite of a rough day. V!
Ann Shapiro18-Nov-2013 00:45
Wonderful picture and so so glad you are safe and all is well. I thought about you today when I heard about the storms! They've headed our way but not that close to me. Stay safe my friend!
