Electrical Storm

We had a beaut light show last night. The best electrical storm I'd seen in ages.
Even the kids agreed, it was better than watching telly.

Wow! That's a cracker Jeanette. I was kinda hoping we'd get something here but no such luck, just the cloud.

I am most impressed 'Nettie. What a wonderful image. Given that you have had to shrink it to fit on here, the original must be wonderful.

I've just wasted ten minutes of my time gazing at it. Thanks.

JEALOUS or what, we haven't had the start of the season over here yet.
Just waiting for it to get going so I can use the new toy.

Very nicely done!

We had a nice display of lightning down here too. Managed to catch one on film. Focusing in the dark is a bit of a trick too.
