[link] 'Sacred Ground' by Craig Chaquico

Taken along I-25 near Orrin Junction, Wyoming last week. Stolen time from the company again :D I watched this storm form and chased it on my way back from Thermopolis, Wyoming. It happened to be going the smae direction as i was so chasing in a truck was easy :laughing:

It was an active storm for lightning, but mostly it was obscured by rain and clouds. I knew if it passed by it would reveal more bolts so I waited for near an hour for it to pass. Got several pretty good shots--a couple were so intense they blew out totally and were unusable--fantastic to see inperson and I had hoped they wouldn't blow out but they did.

I cropped this shot a bit--not a lot--and edited, of course ;)

anyway, thought I'd show you another lightning shot :nod:
