Spring Storm IV - Fire in the Sky
Posted by Bill Ault (GBA, Canada) on 1 May 2008 in Landscape & Rural.
Chain lightning flashes across the sky.
@Betty: It was a great storm - if your a fan of storms.... which I obviously I am.
@Hans: Thanks Hans means a lot from someone with your skill.
@Observing: Observing by this point the thunder was continuous as was the lightning (which is why I was able to catch at this speed) but still no rain. Tomrrow's shot is the one that sent me scurrying to the house...

@Earnest: I took the mass number approach - I think I shot 600 pictures that night and got about 10 with lightning, three of those that I really liked.... so it definitely was a numbers game.
