  1. The other nice bolt I caught a couple days ago, right near the new #BorderWall in San Rafael Valley, Arizona.

    Weird. I'm noticing in this pic and the OP lightning shot that there are these blobs of purplish color in the shot. That isn't there in Lightroom or in Mac Preview, so it must be something messed up in Mastodon's compression algorithm.

  2. Right above me the sky is spotless, but 100 miles to the east, near Tucson, there are huge thunderstorms. I can see the flashes clearly from here. So I've got two cameras set up shooting the sky for sprites. there are nice big silhouetted saguaro cactus in the foreground, so if I catch any it should be pretty cool.

    If you're not sure what I'm talking about, do a search for "sprite lightning". These things are surreal and and it's hard to believe they actually exist until you see one.

  3. Before the snow, before the heat - there was the rain.

    On the way back from this shoot I actually passed two trees on either side of the road on fire from a lightning strike. It was super cool.
