THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN BY AN EMPLYEE ON AN OIL RIG.
HE WAS TRYING TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THE LIGHTNING AND WAS UNAWARE OF THE TORNADO UNTIL THE LIGHTNING ILLUMINATED IT.���

WELCOME!
Welcome to my picture dumping ground.
Now and then -Okay, more like everyday- I come across pics that are cool, but have no real functional use other than to forward to all my e-mail buddies.
Now they can be posted here where anyone in the world can stumble on them randomly and make my site meter go up, thereby concreting my fragile sense that other people might possibly be interested in the same things I am. Or at least have as much time to waste online.
(You stopped reading already didn't you?)

Fake.
Yes, it is fake.
The photo of the tornado and lightning bolt is real.
Everything else is fake. The oil rig is added digitally. The story was completely fabricated.
(from http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/sedalia.asp)
The above-displayed image of a tornado funnel and lightning bolt long antedates the Missouri tornadoes of March 2006 (and the west Texas origins claimed of it in an August 2008 variation which included a digitially-added drilling rig), and it was taken in Florida, not Missouri. According to the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Melbourne, Florida, this photograph was snapped near Lake Okeechobee, Florida, on 15 June 1991. It has been available for purchase (in poster form) through the Tornado Project's on-line store since at least mid-2001.
