    I like the series...showing the pending storm/lightning!
    #4 would be good to frame near your patio door...as a reminder :D
    #5...how did you get that photo? Did you use a flash and tripod or was there enoug light? Did you get washed away? That kind of looked like a difficult shot. I'm familiar with these flash floods...nice op!

    These are nice.

    Thank you. I might just have #4 printed. For #5 I am standing on a road that goes over the wash. I used a tripod, moonlight, led flashlight (my first attempt at light painting) and a 30 second exposure. Unfortunately my battery was dying otherwise I would have taken many more shots of the flash flood.
