Electrical photos on Flickr

In the past few days we've had two electrical storms. The first one started around midnight and I was too tired to go out (I'm actually quite nervous of thunderstorms) but saw some wonderful images the next day and felt quite envious.

The second one a few days later started around 9pm so I just grabbed my bag and drove off to the nearest coastal point to me before I lost my nerve. It was a weird storm which lots of lightning but not much thunder or rain.

Mishap 1: I didn't check settings other then a vague idea that a wide angled lens is better.

Mishap 2: I didn't have a torch to hand so I couldn't see what I was doing when mounting the camera, and playing with settings. Fortunately a couple of other storm chasers helped me out!

Mishap 3: I thought the drive there and back was a bit different. It seemed darker then usual apart from the lightning flashes. It was only a day or so later that I realised my lights were not set to coming on automatically so it appears I drove there and back with no lights on.

Oh and the lightning was not over the sea!

Apart from that it was fine.

2007_0514 Storm Front by James R. Page

80 39

Two days ago this storm front swept over Val Marie, producing damaging winds and torrential rain, and knocking out power. Yesterday the strong winds continued and we lost power just before supper. So... two evenings in a row I have cooked supper on my camp stove. Today all is calm and I think maybe we have returned to normal. Contrary to how things look in this photo, it wasn't the End Of the World.

Because these clouds were discharging lightning, I didn't set up my tripod, aka lightning rod. Even running out into this field for a few quick shots was dangerous, and more than half of them were blurred due to buffeting from the wind. I came home with a few keepers, though.

A powerful lightning bolt emanating from a source between two levels of cloud.

It displays an astonishing multiplicity of lightning forks with horizontal and vertical branches, ending with a colossal ground strike disappearing somewhere beyond a ridge six kilometres away.

Electrical Storm by Dark D Bugaatti Salmson

The sea it swells like a sore head,

and the night it is aching

Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed

and the day it is breaking

On rainy days we'd go swimming out

on rainy days swimming in the sound

On rainy days we'd go swimming out

You're in my mind all of the time

I know that's not enough

If the sky can crack

there must be some way back,

for love and only love.

Electrical Storm

Baby don't cry

Car alarm won't let ya back to sleep

You're kept awake, dreaming some else's dream

Coffee is cold, but it will get you through

Compromise, that's nothing new to you

Let's see colours that have never been seen

Let's go to places no one else has been

You're in my mind all of the time

I know that's not enough

If the sky can crack

there must be some way back

to love and only love

Electrical Storm

Baby don't cry

It's hot as hell, honey in this room

Sure hope the weather will break soon

The air is heavy, heavy as a truck

Need the rain to wash away our bad luck

heeeey... heeeey...

If the sky can crack,

there must be some way back

to love and only love

Electrical Storm

Baby don't cry
