the dailypic 5043 yr14 295 The Storm Strikes

An early dailypic, taken late last night. The storm rolled in and was full of lightning and thunder. Most were in the clouds, and you did not see the bolts. I was in the driveway for about 30 minutes waiting and could tell the storm was more intense over the town park. I jumped in the truck and drove the half mile. On that drive the skies opened, the rain was pouring, and I got soaked running the overhang I had planned on hiding under. Even that was not dry, with the wind blowing in the water – Camera soaked, I was soaked, lens covered in rain, I only needed one shot. Here it is, a 20-second exposure. There were two times the bolts were visible, this is the better. The other is below. Both are taken as I saw them, no special editing, no addition of lighting, just nature’s show.
