Sunset Lightning

Here's an image from Spring 2012 for #SunsetDay !
I was capturing the development of this cloud in a time-lapse video, so you can see the development of this cloud and storm from before sunset until well after dark. This is one image from that sequence.  Here's a link to the completed time-lapse video: https://plus.google.com/107459220492917008623/posts/ZUuVoELmnJR
It was assembled from thousands of shots take from 7:27pm – 9:45pm as the storm formed. I switched at that point to star shots to capture the Lyrid meteor shower. I haven't added that footage yet, but that will extend the timelapse sequence to 2:35am!

  1. Thanks everyone!  I've been away from Internet service for a few days as +Lori Hibbett I complete a lap of the Sierra Nevada.  We're leaving Sequoia National Monument today and entering Sequoia National Park.  The dogwood trees are starting to turn red, so we're hoping for some nice shots as it turns cold over the next few days.

    Outdoor Photographer Magazine featured this image on their blog last September.
