Clearing off

It was a marvel to witness the lightning in this storm. Then it began clearing and the stars came out. Wonderful.

Comments and critiques always welcome, and thanks for looking,

Morris

What a treat Morris. There is just something about a clearing storm at night. Lovely shot
It has a lot of features that are pleasing to the eye.

Yes, I bet that was wonderful, Morris, and so is this. The light in the lower clouds at the horizon is really neat and then over on the center left side again. The stars look great too. This is a very interesting shot that I quite enjoy!

Very nice Morris. I believe the constallation between the two cloud layers to the left of center is Sagittarius.

I wasn't going to click on the thumbnail Morris, so glad I did!! The sky and stars are almost surreal.

Beautiful light in the clouds and sky Morris. There is always some special light with a clearing storm.
