Description
Yeah, yeah, I know I have been a lazy a$$ and didn't upload much lately. Here is Africa in it's raw form when the heavens erupt and huge amounts of energy's set free above us. Thanks to a special friend who encouraged me to upload this. I know it's totally blown out on the left but it was a continuous flash which lasted for more than a second. Spectacular to say the least, if only our equipment could capture the drama of it all.
Good luck to those of you who are caught in the grip of winter and endless snow. My sympathies from a warm and humid part of the world.
Thank you for your kind comments, visits and favorites on the previous upload:

Hello Piet. Great capture. This type of shot sits toward the top of my to do list. But think I'll have to wait until springtime. Bill

Well caught and very powerful image. I have yet to catch any lightning as my attempts so far have all missed. We don't get many thunderstorms here.
I'd say you caught quite a bit of drama! Makes my hair stand on end just looking at it. Super shot :) (By the way, I have never caught lightening on 'film').

I am getting static from just looking at it. What a terribly powerful image and I am glad your friend got you to post it! So glad to see you post again.

WOW! With lightening like this I would think that wildfires are a danger. It really fills the sky. Awesome job capturing this. I can never get lightening...all I get is the "after the lightening." LOL
