The self-defined virtual artist Chad Cowan has honored a few words that we can see on his profile on the net «I chase the most violent weather on earth and try to capture its beauty«.
The compilation of time-lapses collected during the last 6 years in the area known as the tornado corridor between Texas and North Dakota, shows the meaning of these words, the time invested shows us the beauty of the most violent time, the supercells in all its glory.
Storm Supercell
What is a supercell?

The self-defined virtual artist Chad Cowan has lived up to a few words that we can see on his profile on the web: “I chase the most violent weather on earth and I try to capture its beauty”.
The compilation of time-lapses collected during the last 6 years in the area known as the tornado corridor between Texas and North Dakota, shows the meaning of these words, the time invested shows us the beauty of the most violent weather, the supercells in all its splendor.
The author of video lesson prefers to focus on a more global vision, and defines these supercells as "a manifestation of nature's attempt to correct an extreme imbalance" or in other words "as the more extreme the imbalance, the greater the storm«.
Project development
The project began as an attempt to observe the life cycles of these storms how he states on his page "for my own enjoyment and to increase my knowledge of them."
Over time it became an "obsession" with the role of document as many photogenic supercells as possible, in the best possible resolution (4K at the moment) so that it can "be shared with those who cannot see first-hand the astonishing beauty that comes to life in the skies of the great American plains each spring."
This video is the result obtained after more than 160000 kilometers on the road and tens of thousands of shots with the camera.
To conclude, I only hope that you enjoy it as much as the author recognizes on his page that he has enjoyed doing it and that you appreciate the great work behind you.
