Wow, taking their chances is an understatement! Terrific shot w/ that group of spectators watching the show! Superb capture, ma9rk!!

Tks Daniel. Considering it can just as easily go from ground up. Its not like you are going to be warned of a strike. I certainly wouldn’t be standing on top of a huge steel bridge with deep footings into the banks of a river giving a first class earth (ground) potential during a storm.

great shot – I can’t believe they were up there during the storm. Unless it came out of nowhere, I can just imagine a massive lawsuit happening
