Tropical Twister*
by Justin Miller

Grand Cayman Island

Entered in Exhibition on a previous challenge, I didn't want to enter the same pics...so I posted this one here. It is the other half of my Exhibition entry 'Black Sky Afternoon'...taken from the deck of my cruise ship, tendered off of Grand Cayman Island. The same front that brought those ominous black skies caught up to us just as we were getting ready to sail...I was quite surprised to see the clouds start reaching down to the sea, then seeing mist from the sea start blowing around and reaching up to the clouds. This waterspout eventually crawled on land near 7-Mile Beach - but I never found out if it caused any damage. We sailed shortly after.
