Skate park girl

And nasty storm! I took my wide lens and flash with me this time. The storm chased everyone off just as I was getting it all figured out. Meanwhile, a friend of mine had driven to central Iowa to chase storms (funny how that works).

 

All the fences and light poles in the background are new after a tornado ripped through this park in May, 2003. Carriage Hills sub division is just about 2 miles to my left where I stand while shooting this photo. There were about 300 homes destroyed there on that day. That tornado missed me at work, my dad's house and my apartment by narrow margins. www.crh.noaa.gov/eax/events/may042003/ma2.php
