Playing with Storms... Storm Over Ramah, Colorado

[Lin Evans]

I took an image from a friend's balcony on her ranch in rural southern Colorado about 12 miles from Calhan and about 10 miles from Ramah, Colorado.

Shortly after I shot the image (a few days) a tornado swept through the rural ranching community and it prompted me to make this little sixty second animated show for my friend.

thought for the animator -- any way to bring the tornado to the viewer --gradually fill the screen and end??

Hi Ken,

Thanks! Yes that's not hard to do, but this one was done for the friend who owns the ranch and is essentially what she saw when the actual tornado swept west to east across her view. Maybe in a future version I will make one which approaches the viewer and engulfs the entire screen at the end....

Best regards,

Lin

something for the bucket list --

if nothing else to impress the doubters and users of the often mentioned other products
