So, you ask "how to take…?" but you really want to know
"how to MAKE…?"
I may be wrong but this cloud formation does not
suggest anything was manipulated.
Well, yes it is naturally occurring. It's not a technique to get that cloud shape. It was edited for color, contrast, etc. Go take a look at Storm Chaser photos and you will see all types of crazy cloud formations. So, my answer still is, if you want to take images like this, go to where they are. Oklahoma is probably the best chance for this type of cloud.elektrobank wrote:

This isn't naturally occurring, I wanted to know the technique the photographer used to get that circular shape.

That would be incorrect. There are number of cloud formations that are quite rare, but real nonetheless.
"I haven't seen it so therefore it must not be real" should never be the foundation for an assessment.

You are correct Gary. The reason I jumped to this conclusion is that I've seen pics from other photographers that look just like this pic and were literally taken right outside my window. Some were even taken on the same days I was watching the storm to see if I could get a similar photo. Yet I've never seen any clouds that look even remotely like this. Is it possible they are taking a long exposure shot that is perpendicular to the direction the clouds are moving? Or is this just naturally how the clouds look if you capture them from the right angle? And if so, where would I want to shoot from?
