Hey thanks everybody for the comments, I'm sorta proud of em myself. I rode around with a stormchaser group in the summer of 2002. They are some awesome guys, They're passionate about what they do. One of the men used to photograph for National Geographic. He taught me some really good tips of photographing storms. The locations I took the pics are: Pic1- West TX, pic2- Southern Oklahoma, pic3- Southern Oklahoma, pic4- Southern Oklahoma, pic5- West TX, pic6- Southern Oklahoma as well as pic7

Rode along witha group of four guys, they were affiliated with an indepedant weather service. I didn't know much about the research they did but my wife at the time knew one of the guys and he invited me along. I grabbed my 35mm camera and spent four weeks with them.

The guy my wife knew was Doug Hunt, he did the driving in the jeep I was in, he mostly set up routes, handled the budget, took a few pictures. Steve Taylor was in the van, he did a lot of work on a this big ass computer type device, constantly imputting info, print outs of charts, etc. etc. stuff that was well above my head. The other guys names I didnt know well. One was Tom and the other Dennis. They were a very small operation, A van with enough electronics to power a football stadium it seemed and Doug and I in a jeep cherokee, usually about an hour ahead of them. Thats about my extent of stormchasing knowledge
