Description
This is from an incredible week of thunderstorms which hit my area 2 years ago. I got several good pictures, but it cost me a TV, an amplifier, and (oddly) the IO subsystem in my computer, all damaged by lightning. :(

I can't say it was worth what it cost you, but this is a great photo. I love the color of the sky.

Uh oh... these high voltages ruin your elctronical equipment, better just watch these celestial shows far away from this expensive stuff (except the cam, of course! :)

This is freakin awesome! I grew up in Florida, the lightning state, so Ive seen this sort of thing before. But Ive never captured it on film (or whatever) like this before!

Fantastic photo! I got hit some months ago. It destroyed, the computer, the telephone, the printer and water heater...and I didn't even get a photo!

double too bad about your loss. I love the capture of lighting. I was trying the other night but it started a light rain and I rather have my camera dry so all I got was one. I learned already turn stuff off when a storm is approaching

You recall a bad and frighted souvenir. A few years ago, thunder has fall on my street and a jet of thunder (with a strange purple color) has run from the window into my working room right on my PC screen. I do not tell you the result, its still very vivid in my mind. Great shot John and so sorry for destroying of your material.
