9/1/13 DeKalb, IL cells

There hasn't been much to photograph around these parts as of late.  Today was a bit of a surprise as a few cells fired up in the late evening.  One of the cells went on to produce a tornado just south of the county line here in DeKalb.  I was unfortunately unable to see it or chase it as the KLOT radar has been down for a few days and it was one of those situations where you just had to be there as it snuck up on you.  Nevertheless, it was a nice night out and I decided to head just south of town to catch a few cells as waning sun hit them.  Had to use an older lens for this shoot and some of the photos turned out a bit grainy.... oh well.  Enjoy.
