Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Weather

Taken at 6:51pm from the Bald Hill opal fields, Lightning Ridge, N.S.W. on the 8.4.12.

Easily my best photo for the night. Stunning clear air CG firing out of the main core area. There were about six other active storms around me to the NW and SE that were racing along the front that was pushing East across N.S.W.

A HUGE thanks to Greg Gibbs [link] for suggesting this for a Daily Deviation and to Trevor Gass [link] for featuring it!

Exquisite... it is an awe inspiring image. I've seen such storms while in Idaho, but to capture it takes a little luck and a GREAT deal of thought and preparation .
Looking at this photograph makes me hope, very deeply, that I will be able to view such a scene one more time.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the comment first off! Much appreciated

We are fortunate out here to commonly see fairly isolated storms like this (multicell types mostly).
It's so nice to shoot weather and not end up drenched by heavy rain as is usually the case lol.

I'm sure you'll get to see something again soon. It's all about being in the right place at the right time
