18:32:14 -- El Reno, OK (Looking West)
The tornado narrowed to a pencil-shape, and strong downward motion was evident on descending scud near the tornado (associated with the RFD).The translucent / semi-transparent nature of the lowest part of the condensation funnel was neat.  The color and back-lighting made for a very photogenic tornado.  In addition, there was no precipition to be seen near the RFD or tornado.
