This year is starting to shape up be more weather coverage. This month I visited Mapleton Iowa a year after it was devastated by a tornado in April 2011.
Saturday I started out at the Husker spring game which was canceled due to the inclement weather. That is unheard of in Nebraska.
From the canceled game the staff set out trying to document the storms.
I personally traveled about 500 miles in two days, ending up in Thurman Iowa, a charming little town that was hit hard.
Here is the staff photo slideshow:

I also created three gigapans of the flooding to provide a look at the big picture and small details. Links in this article:

VISUAL MERCENARY
(freelance photojournalist/staff photographer)
-----------------------------
Hi, I am photojournalist in the midwest. My work has been seen from USA Today to national magazines. I am a staff photographer at the Omaha World-Herald and I also freelance work.
I created a gallery called "Air Hockey" where the theme is at least one person in each photo must have both feet off the ground. Check it out on the bottom.
