We have sure been having our share of Lightning storms the last couple of weeks. Friday night a real good one came through. I wanted to go up on the hill behind our house and we started to, but we chickened out. I did go up after the storm had moved on a bit. Anyway, here are a few shots from Friday night.

This pic is looking toward our home with the hill in the background. I was sitting in the car.

This is after the storm had moved on a bit and I was in the car up on the hill.

The storm was far enough away that I felt safe to get out of the car.

    Oh man! These are awesome, Ron. I really like the artistic aspects of the 2nd shot. How about cropping out the very bottom part so only the sky and the raindrops are shown?

    That's exactly what I had in mind. I think it looks better. What do you think?
