First time I tried to take a picture of a lightning... So I ended up with a lot of pics with nothing on them ;)
Unfortunately I can't provide the clap of thunder that followed on this one, but I can tell you: it was some kind of impressive. ;)
Or, as Mark Twain put it:
"Thunder is good, thunder is impressive; but it is lightning that does the work."

My husband played with the lighting on these masks using a slow shutter speed on a tripod and manually "painting" the light effects in a completely dark, closed room. Everything he tried brought out completely different expressions in the masks. This one is quite formidable.
Here you can see me test fitting the switch into the slot I cut in the side. This thermos only has about 0.1" clearance between the inner and outer walls, and the pushbutton from the flashlight is almost 0.25", so as you can see, it sticks out a fair bit. Ah well.
You can also see the tabs where the wires will connect sticking out; this is not a permanent mounting, just a test fit, as I said. Eventually I want to solder wires to them, tuck the tabs back and slide them under the outer shell, and run the wires behind the shell to the batteries and bulb in the butt of the thermos.
Extended exposure where I was experimenting using my flashlight as a spotlight. Not sure if I'm happy with this but it was my best shot.
Underneath the streets of Manchester, where Gore brook becomes Platt brook is Gripper. The brook flows through beautifully constructed arched tunnels and into the nearby park.
Occasionally water drips out of small side tunnels and pipes. It's not a long culvert, but is a good one for lighting up and taking some photos. At least I think so.
N.B It is unlikely that the drain was named by Gripper Stebson off Grange Hill.
Using my new Vello wireless remote control, I made a few long exposures of my kids playing with flashlights. This is Rebecca, solo.
Exposure: 13 seconds
And one down the throat of the thermos just after I glued in the reflector. That light at the end of the tunnel you're seeing there is the hole where the bulb will be installed.
Maia went down the way and shined her light on the wall. Pat and Alan shone theirs on her.
I had the camera on a rock.
