Welcome to the online home of George
Kourounis. I'm a global explorer, adventurer and storm chaser.
Here you will find many unique images of my incredible journeys
from all 7 continents and over 80 countries.
I've spent years photographing some
of Mother Nature's most elusive and dangerous phenomena. I've
chased tornadoes, giant hail, dust storms, hurricanes, avalanches,
volcanoes and lightning among other things. This site contains
a variety of photographs and video images of these encounters
with wild weather and other forces of nature.
