A pic of the sky and the clouds like 20 minutes ago. Couldn't get a better shot because the wind was amazingly strong.

Dreaming the night away on a beach waiting for the cloudcover to disappear...

Haven't posted a lightning strike in what feels like AGES, which is probably far from the truth. Anyways, this was a towering strike that I cropped to fill the entire frame. The original capture had it a bit more to the left than I liked. When shooting lightning, sometimes you don't aim in the right spot and almost miss. So cropping is a fantastic way to recompose the image to get your bolt looking awesome.

In the realm of weather, a lightning strike that hits the surface of the earth is technically called "Cloud to Ground" or CG. These are the kind I of course go for. There are very, very rare occasions where "In Cloud" lightning creates an awesome image.

I have one of those rare ones that I'll post at a later day. One of my favorites.

I can see an eye peeping out.

This was the first afternoon of my trip. It was rainy most of the day, and then this popped out for about 20 minutes.

Did I mention I love cloud shadows? Here's this week's collection.

As far as I know, the colours are caused by the diffraction of sunlight by a thin layer of cloud made up of similar-sized small water droplets or ice crystals.
