#747 (07/31/16 - 08/06/16) Lightning - Submitted by Jim Erhardt. Photos of lightning!

(At least that's what I believe that Jim is looking for, not just brighter photos...sad)

Since the original spelling was "lightening", I thought we were talking about luminosity masks.

Yep, I'll need to wait for the next round in hopes of maybe,  "enlightening our camera pack loads".........blush

For all you storm chasers...be careful out there! You want an electrifying experience, but not a shocking one.

Remember, lightning can occur miles from an active cell. When thunder roars, go indoors! Your vehicle is the safest place if you are outside.

Be safe!

Preston, all kidding aside, very important message. Two weeks ago I made a 2 hour trip to J-tree and never got out of the vehicle for all the lightning strikes. I'm already cooked internally, I did not want to match the outside to the inside thank you !!
