Small convoy of lightning makers lofted the Rim last night, aiming just east of Flagstaff. Instability (SB/ML) looked like trash north of I-40, so that's where I set up. Catch them as they arrive in spots where one can see. Most cases they would've dissipated after that, but these kept on trucking northeast. Mesoanalysis data updated at some point later & plotted out that oh yea there was a touch of elevated instability up that way. Should've picked Leupp Rd for closer, crispitier shots—but hindsight being what it is.

A lightning storm with multiple strikes outside Phoenix, Arizona.
Lightning is a sudden electrostatic discharge that occurs during an electrical storm. This discharge occurs between electrically charged regions of a cloud (called intra-cloud lightning or IC), between two clouds (CC lightning), or between a cloud and the ground (CG lightning). The charged regions in the atmosphere temporarily equalize themselves through this discharge referred to as a strike if it hits an object on the ground, and a flash, if it occurs within a cloud. Lightning causes light in the form of plasma, and sound in the form of thunder. Lightning may be seen and not heard when it occurs at a distance too great for the sound to carry as far as the light from the strike or flash.
On the way home all around was lighting up, then i spotted the windmill in Essex, i just had to get wet, my first time ever doing lightning, this is a stacked image, three of the lightning and one of the windmill, all taken from the tripod with no movement.
I had a blast watching a lightning storm as it rolled into Wind Cave National Park. Most of it was horizontal.
Another lightning photo from my 2007-2010 stay in Romania.
It always strikes me when lightning in a photograph is in a nice setting (here the growing cumulus cloud and the lit church). It adds so much extra to the photograph.....
This photo captures a powerful storm as it rolls through the area, with lightning bolts lighting up the sky. The photo is taken from a distance, providing a wide-angle view of the storm as it moves through the landscape.
Lightning over Perth, Western Australia. This was a storm that came out of the blue on 1st March 2017, and one that was a long time coming. No decent storms in Perth since 2015!
Real lightning bolt strikes - with a sunrise over the city.

I followed this storm very early one summer morning, and was able to get several nice shots. This was one of the last shots I got before the sun came up and the storm rolled off over the mountains and into the next county.

Stack of 20 raw images taken between 8:34PM-8:39PM (sunset 8:17PM). Strikes were between 20 to 25 miles. Nikkor 85mm f/1.4 lens was used. Note rare ribbon lightning near center of image.
As forecasted, strong thunderstorms formed on the end of a trailing cold at 6PM with continuous thunder and intense cloud to ground lightning. Small hail fell for 35 minutes. Break in the clouds to the west allowed for spectacular anti-crepuscular rays, lightning next to partial rainbow, mammatus, and a legendary fiery sunset. More images to follow.

It was a stormy day in UAE. I was 160KM far from dubai and my weather expert friend called me to inform there might be thunder storm tonight. Although its a weekday, my passion take me to Dubai and I saw some amazing thunder lightning.

An extremely humid day ended with a long lightning storm over Vancouver today. I had always wanted to shoot lightning, this was my chance. The view my apartment isn't all that great, but it was perfect for watching the storm tonight.
This was all preceded by an amazing sunset - I'll upload some pictures of that tomorrow.
I think this is my favourite of the lot, the lightning seems so random and is just going everywhere.
I went chasing a severe warned thunderstorm on 6/6/17. As I was trying to get in front of the storm I kept noticing a rainbow forming in my rearview mirror. So I hurried to find a spot that I could pull of the road. If you know SH-10 in Colorado between Walsenburg and La Junta, you know pull off's are few and far between. Anyhow, when I did finally find a spot I knew I didn't have long since the light was fading fast So I started shooting the rainbow and was just lucky enough that one of the frames had lightning in it.
Was able to capture the only lightning bolt near my home in a storm the passed through around 11pm on 7/3. Much more rain and lightning to my north and south so I was fortunate to capture this one. Note also the scud clouds in the image as well.

Waves of thunderstorms are passing over the Queensland Gold Coast. This one seemed to feature more cloud to cloud strikes than usual over an extended period.

Lightning viewed from Jersey City, NJ of a rather large approaching lightning storm. Storm ended up being one of the better lightning shows I've seen in a year or two in the New York City (NYC) area. This is looking towards the Journal Square area of Jersey City and Newark, NJ.
