That looks so very very photoshopped, regardless of what you say :)

If you look at the shadows on the ground, the sun is supposedly left of the picture, and tornados when leaning ALWAYS lean away from the sun.

If what you are saying is actually true, then you might want to take a closer look at the photograph... specifically the lean of the funnel and the perspective of the shadows.

Wait.. you took me seriously?

Tell me why some of the shadows point towards the camera, some to the right, and some to the left.

The twister is screwing with the sun, causing light and shadow to act all willy-nilly.

Did you sleep in Science Class? Sheesh!

heh thats just not true...lean of a tornado has nada to do with the sun's position...

I don't see anything that would be inconsistent with this being an actual photo...Sun and Rainbow are in the right relative positions and the area of the tornado visible doesn't show any incongruent colours when you filter...in fact you can see the second rainbow arc as well...I think it's not significantly retouched from the negative, though it could be double exposed...

The Leprechauns however may have been added after the fact... :lol:
