Blast and Swirl

2023-06-19 By Roger Edwards

Blast and Swirl

Spectacular supercell in central Texas…in mid June?  You bet!  The weather pattern was highly unusual to place strong, supercell-favoring flow over the Hill Country at this time of year, but there we were.  This booming barber pole of swirling vapors was the second supercell in the Brady/Mason area in the span of just a couple hours, both furiously flinging electricity from their upper reaches on all sides.  Though the majority of tall flashes were from the downshear anvil, I caught one off the storm’s lateral/inflow side that boomed for a long time.  Early sunset-hour light enriched the experience.

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
