I chose this photo because when I saw it I said,"No way! Photoshop." I mean really, a photo with a tornado, fire, lightning, and the stars in the background? Million to one. No way. But then I realized it was National Geographic and they would (probably)not post anything fake. When I got over the initial disbelief, the photo seemed amazing, a monument to the true power of nature. The impressive array and power of this storm sends shivers up my spine just thinking about it. What culmination of events must have happened to make this photo happen? And what are the chances? It looks to me like it is a still out of a movie. Some fanatical scientist has just discovered a new super weapon and is about to unleash it, or aliens are invading and this is their arrival, this picture captures it all. If I could submit a photo for this contest, I would go back to China and go onto the Great Wall and take a picture of the landscape. The landscape near the Great Wall, at least the part I visited, was beautiful.
