One of my most popular photographs is the one you see above. (High resolution at the end of the article)
Back in AugustĀ of 2013, I got a text message from a friend:
“Go look at the sky.”
I laughed, and walked out my front door. Absolutely clear skies.
“Um, what am I supposed to be seeing?”
“Look north.”
I took two steps off the front sidewalk and looked to my left.
There, spread across the sky in the distance was a rolling thunderstorm. I could not hear it, but lightning was flashing through the clouds every few seconds.
