Wow, the skies around here have been pretty exciting. Over the weekend there was a huge lightning storm. I've never seen so much lightning before. The entire sky was endlessly being lit up. And it wasn't just the straight up and down lightnting bolts. (Although, I did get an amazing picture of one bolt...it's on my flickr page, link on right) There were bolts that you couldn't see, but that would light up the sky from within the clouds. One picture I took looked like I took at at noon, it was so bright. But my favourite had to be the bolts that would spread out horizontally and cover the entire sky.
But, there was a freak lightning strike today, which unfortunately struck 3 people at a soccer field. They're in hospital now...
More excitement, tonight was the peak of the Perseid Meteor shower. I only remembered after the peak viewing time, but still managed to see a catch part of the shower. Hopefully next year, I can figure out a way to catch some on film.
