Evgeny Drokov was vacationing with his family in Genoa, Italy, when, on their last morning, he captured this tornado (technically called a waterspout) on camera. Drokov was on his hotel balcony just 2 km (1.25 mi) away when he snapped these pictures. "I've never seen anything like this before! It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience," he said.
