Traveling across more than seven Midwestern states with a professional storm-chasing group called Tempest Tours, Eric Meola documented everything from hair-raising tornadoes to serene sunsets. While interested in the interplay between light and color in the sky, he also sought to portray signs of life in the old towns they visited. “A gnarled tree, a road sign, railroad tracks,” he says. “Something like that can scale the photograph and offer context.”
