Thunderstorm rolled through just as the sun was rising yesterday morning, lots of lightning and a short but torrential downpour.

It frightens me when I see a thunderstorm approaching in the mountains. I start looking for shelter running through the do's and don'ts. 'If your hair stands on end, move immediately.' I hope I would move in the right direction. Panic does not help you think clearly.

An interesting line of thunderstorms were approaching our area early evening last night. It did result in some much needed rain after the sunset!
I find the soft sunlight, shadows and cloud combination to be quite delightful this time of day. . . a painting by the Dutch Masters! :)

Here’s a Vertorama that I captured while paddling a canoe around Emerald Lake during a sudden late-afternoon thunderstorm.
The sky was clear and blue when I rented the canoe and started paddling around the lake… but after half an hour (or so) the dark clouds started rolling in… and I heard the distant rumbling of an approaching thunderstorm.
My first thoughts were to get off the water as quickly as possible… my head was clearly the highest point on the lake at that moment… and I was a sitting duck to any lightning strikes! But the amazing dark thunderclouds and the sweet light shining through the gaps in the clouds were so photographically appealing to me… that I decided to continue paddling and shooting until I saw the first bolt of lightning.
Fortunately it was a small storm and I didn’t notice any lightning strikes… and fortunately the light show on the surrounding landscape was worth all the risks taken… I managed to get quite a few nice shots on the lake that day… including one particular shot that I was really hoping to get (not this one)!!

There were plenty of cloud-to-ground lightning strikes as this thunderstorm rumbled through the valley near our home.
The combination of these two settings creates incredible light conditions.

Note that the focal length presented in the EXIF data is not correct. I was shooting a Pentax lens on the Sony A7RV with the Monster LA-KE1 adapter. Occasionally the EXIF data do not register accurately when using the Monster adapter. The lens is the Pentax DFA 28-105. I'll guess that the focal length was near 30-50mm.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
Last Friday I had a bussy evening: we finally had some thunderstorm activity in The Netherlands !
Cold air aloft (-25C at 500 hPa) over the relatively warm waters of the North Sea (19C) in combination with an upper level trough, caused many showers and thunderstorms.
Both the kayakers out on the lake and the trail walkers decided it was time to head for shelter when this storm cloud along with thunder in the distance approached yesterday. (After pausing for a photo op of course.) Luckily so, because before we got home we were bombed by large hail, strong winds and heavy rains.
