Update; If you look really closely above the red sprites, you will see a very faint Perseid Meteor. There has been discussion in the spaceweather community whether meteors can trigger a sprites event.

Although there was no indication in people.ee.duke.edu/~cummer/cmc/new6 of sprite activity, a extremely active, continuous lightning display was occurring to my north from dusk through 11:30PM when more clouds moved into my area.

I was attempting to capture some pre-peak activity of the Perseids Meteor Shower, when this lightning storm appeared. In nearly two hours, a recorded at least 15 sprite events. These images are the better ones.

Used Nikon d7100, Nikkor 35mm f/1.4 @ f/2.8 (not f/5.6), iso 1600, and exposure of 10s. Photoshop was used to increase contrast and reduce some noise (grainness).

The Sprite is eyeballing me because I haven't given it special attention in at least a month.

This is the FRAXY sprite set for the FS-34 Cavalier II. Clearly, at this size, it's difficult to tell this craft was ever LEGO at all.

1958 Austin Healey Sprite by Steve Sexton

Sprites? by Larry Johnson

A combination of high-ISO graininess, a sulphur street light, blowing snow, a 90-degree clockwise rotation, and a careful crop turned this pic of a Beaver Creek streetlight into something more fanciful.

If you see me taking a shot like this, you can assume I was bored and was either stuck somewhere, or in wait mode. In that mode, most of my attempts at this sort of thing do not come out, but this one I thought was a keeper.

Shot with a Nikon D300 and a Nikkor 18-200 f3.5 VR lens at 200 mm.

Handheld, natural light, f5.6, 1/13 sec, ISO 3200

When they noticed our cameras, they turned their heads away. I took the shot earlier... I think they are the workers's wives; during the hot & bored Saturday afternoon, their entertainment was to find the cool place under the bridge to enjoy and chat...

Cheng Liang 乘凉 = enjoy the cool.....
