    Right On, John! This is really cool!

    Never seen cloud formation like this! But it looks like you caught this strike in a rain shaft.
    Well done!

  • Thanks Jeremy. It was an interesting storm. Windy and plenty of rain but I’ve seen worse lightning.

    Great colors! Well captured, John!

  • Thank you Daniel. I believe the colors came from the nearby town.

    John, your capture of the sky with the bolt of lightning and streak of light above it coming downward is quite beautiful, and I like the few, simple colors in the photo. Excellent.

  • Thank you very much Cora.
