What's Up

field_caption

Hundreds of adolescent elephant seals live on the beach eating and learning adult behavior before leaving the island. It is a cacophony of sound and activity until noon, when everyone seems to take a siesta. As I walked by these sleeping seals, one of them popped up his head as if to ask, "What's up?".

Dust Dance

field_caption

A tornado tightens up and kicks up a lot of dust as it heads straight for me, roping out and dissipating approximately 1/2 mile from my location less than a minute later. The tornado was on the ground for a total of 4 minutes. To the right of the main tornado another funnel with a debris cloud on the ground can be seen. The tornado was a rare cold core tornado that had papers written up about it a few days later, referencing my photos. This is one of seven tornadoes I saw that day, making it my most successful storm chase to date. June 20th, 2011 near Norton Kansas at 2:32pm.

Tire Hoop

field_caption

While visiting Eastern Kenya, I ran into a group of young girls who challenged me to a hula-hoop contest. Once I agreed, one young girl took off behind a small shed and returned with several old bike tires. I captured this moment of one of my young friend's showing off her skills. I love the contrast between the old, dirty tire and her sunday's best dress. Needless to say, she won our little contest.
