This would become an epic night of light and storm! Some of my best lighting captures of 2011 are in this set!

 

A few hours later that evening storms in north central Kansas fired up again as they were pushing into south central Nebraska. @ This time with severe warnings, the lightning was firing off.

 

I was in luck! They were foretasted to move almost due norht / northeast over the next few hours and I just had to find a good location. Due to the time of year the corn here in this part of Nebraska is at its peak. 13-16 foot corn. I had to find a spot that I could see over the corn.

 

I grabbed my gear & headed south. Made my way down, via country roads, from Kearney just to the north of Wilcox Nebraska. I sat along side this storm as it produced one of the most EPIC displays of lightning for 2011. Every few seconds there was incredible cloud to ground lightning. Sometimes it would spider out (cloud to cloud) and sometimes it would just be a fork or a positive cg bolt that was out of this world.
