Trouble over Timbered Dome

Trouble over Timbered Dome

Tornado warnings are rare in Idaho but we had two touch down last summer in a short lived weather pattern. This cell never did touch down but I was lucky enough to capture the lightning.

Nice catch.

Exposure time of 1/200 of a second. Pretty lucky to catch the lightning.

Re: Nice catch.

Thank's I had one chance after another on the lightening, but in the end it was just dumb luck.

Great Shot!

Living in Oklahoma, I've see more than my share of these guys. Never been fortunate enough to get such an excellent image, though. Good job!
