There was a tornado that hit the midtown area of Mobile on Christmas Day 2012. I shot a few images on January 25, 2013. It is amazing how a tornado will totally destroy one house and leave one next to it unscathed.
Tachihara 4x5 on TMY. Still trying to learn digital processing so excuse the poor scans.

A couple more of the Christmas Day 2012 tornado. Detail of a raindeer & angel left in the attic.
There was an azalea branch that was broken off and lodged in a palm tree that blossumed a month after the tornado hit.
