MONOCHROMATIC GOODNESS!!

Lightning strikes over Lincoln County in Las Vegas NV. Unfortunately I was at work and couldn't take pictures when the best strikes were happening so I wasn't watching. But, my coworkers were oooo and ahhhing saying "that was a good one!" etc. Soon as I got off from work I rushed home to grab my gear and drove to my spot for lightning up north. =)

Lightning breaks in every direction near the Ground between Mt Somerville and Mt Tomewin. View over the New South Wales border from the Queensland Gold Coast hinterland.

As it was so noisy last night I thought I'd chance my luck and try to get a lightning image as the storms raged over head. I was rewarded with this shot from the spare bedroom window, just before 2.00 am this morning. Tired now!

Red sprite lightning reaching from top of thunderstorm clouds upwards towards space. A very difficult subject made easier by Paul M Smith's guidance in his Red Sprite Workshop. Fort Stockton, TX.

In the late afternoon thunderstorms developed over the Italian Alps near Riva del Garda. They drifted southeast towards Rovereto.

Storms continuously developed upstream so it was not too difficult to find a spot for several hours of lightning activity.

 

As is often the case with such trailing storms, almost all lightning was IC and CC. I didn't see a single CG......

Nonetheless the CC that I witnessed were spectacular at times.....

One of the first (and best) lightning photos I've ever taken. Recently had to edit it black and white for a customer. I love the drama the black and white edit gives it. The lights in the left lower corner are the cattle sale barn at the north end of our town. While I didn't get the lights of the whole town, I think this proves just how small we really are.

This is a stack of 16 individual frames taken from the central Texas area within 5 minutes of each other, during the evening of May 16, 2025. The storm was moving from West to East. Highly electrified storms moved through the area, and I wanted to show the amount of lightning these storms produced.

Thunderstorm and Lightning

A tornado warned storm with a lot of lightning was moving this direction, prompting a relocation.

The last 2 days of August tried to "compensate" for a long record-warm and dry summer. The lightning activity was great on both days and I had some captures despite the daylight. Even while the storm was moving away and the sun was well above us, quadruple lightning bolts like this one, were "hanging" around. Taken on 30.08.2024, in Athens, Greece. Canon 5Dmk4, Sigma Art 14 mm, f/4, 1/25'', iso 100, NiSi ND64 nano IR filter.

I love the song "Lampo" by Gianmaria Testa but Lampo means lightning and I don't have any photos of it. But the other day I found this lightning road and hope it fits to the song. Here is a bit in Italian and a bit in English via translation software.

 

"però la vita é subito

tu mi dici così

si ma la vita é subito

il tempo, soltanto il tempo

di una fotografia

il lampo che abbaglia negli occhi

e non ci vedi più "

 

"However, life is just this moment

so you say to me

but it is just here and now-

time, only time;

a photo

the lightning flash that dazzles the eyes

and we do not see "

 

Listen to the song please.

This is another recently recovered shot which, unfortunately, is not an original edit. This shows a wall cloud illuminated by lightning about three miles north and east. The cell was tornado warned shortly before this.

Cuba. Improvviso un fulmine squarcia l'oscurità ed in un attimo colora il mare, la sabbia, il cielo.

Put my camera at my window on interval shooting mode since lightning started just after the sun had set. Until the night sky had totally calmed down at about 9pm, I checked my playback. Here is the only ONE out of the over three hundred photographs in my memory card that stood out. 😀

Lightning night on 7th Jan 2022
