holy $%#!! that's close!! one the best lighting shots i've seen, most others are usually off in the relative safe distance. I'm glad you didn't get fried on this one. were you buzzing/partially deaf before after the strike?

Thanks. Thats incredible. This is probably my favorite photo I've ever seen.
I was there on that ridge in about 1985.

Thanks CSF and JC.
No buzzing, but it did leave the smell of ozone in the air.
This is one of my top selling photo's, available in 16x24 and 24x36, and believe
me when I say that clients are in awe when they they see it printed large, and
on there living room or office walls, it's like your right in the picture!
PM me if any of you are interested in purchasing.
