Crazy Lightning

Tucson, AZ

An adrenaline pumping storm passed over us this evening. I went up on
the observation deck for some shots but was scared spitless because these
things were really close (all about a mile away). Thankfully it began
to rain which drove me inside. Crazy me, crazy lightning. Fun stuff.
This is a single 20 second exposure with no crop (on a full frame camera).

Wonderful shot Sam, that certainly was a good storm and picture show, the lighting was some of the best I have seen.
