Incoming Storm
Posted By: Bob Harris, 09-01-2011, 09:43 PM

The clouds starting changing color, possibly due to dirt in the air and soon we were in the middle of a lightning storm where I got some great lightning strike photos which I will post later. Thanks for taking a look, Bob

I can almost hear "Riders on the storm" playing in the background.--charliezap

Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm

Thanks Charlie, the song is much better than my photo. What great music we had. Bob

WOW... gorgeous shot portraying some awesome energy in the sky! Lots of great textures and depth to the photo too...I'd be getting off the water and looking for cover if the sky turned that colour overhead. oh... but you are in the desert... how do you avoid the lightning?
Tess, why would anyone want to avoid lightning. I worked for a electric utility for 30 years and got paid for chasing storms, now I take photos for free. Thanks so much for the kind words, I would get off of the water though. Bob

I remember the day's as a little boy I would lie down on the grass and look at the skies. This reminds me of those times.
Yes Remco, the good old days, now I have a hard time getting back up, thanks, Bob
