Summer storm (or, the miracle shot)
I thought it was impossible to get a shot of lightning with my camera. I mean, it's got a max exposure of four seconds -- hopeless, right? But I was stubbornly optimistic, and set up my tripod, and pressed the shutter... again, and again, and again...
...until... on the 39th shot....
This happened. SUCCESS!!
Cropped and sharpened a smidgen, otherwise as shot.
