Lightning Strike - Henry Mountains, Utah
Almost a year ago I was exploring south central Utah with Guy Tal and we happened to have an opportunity to photograph lightning at the end of a very productive day in the field. While we took up different positions it would seem we captured the same lighting strike at almost the exact same instant. Take a look for yourself as his photo is included in a very well written article on Photographing Lightning.

Wow. Nice shot. That article of guy’s is great too. Thanks for the post.
I managed to get a shot of lightning a few days ago.

That is the very same lightning bolt that Guy Tal shot – only you each had a different cropping and coloration! that’s what makes us unique. I also linked to Guy’s blog from an article I wrote today on lightning. I’ve lived in Utah for 30 years now, and have yet to visit the rugged Henry Mtn. area.
Stunning image of the lighting Jim. I guess it takes a lot of practice and some good luck to get this perfectly.
