Admiring the Power - Self Portrait
The biggest lightning storm I have even experience and seen living on the West coast. A friend of mine ran out side to catch some lightning. Unprepared with a garbage tripod as it started to rain. So improvising in my pjs I took off my shirt to shield my camera body from the rain. With my 30ft cable release I decided to get artsy and take some self portraits in front of the camera. This is one of the best shots I have ever taken. You got the busy traffic on the left, nature on the right and myself standing on the train tracks admire and appreciating the awesomeness of my mother nature.

Final edit, ready for entry in the national PPOC.
