Tuesday night a line of intense electrical storms passed to the south of us.

Kris and I drove over to Strasburg as lightning flashed across the sky. It was 15 to 20 miles to the south, and far enough away that we couldn’t hear the thunder. To the north the sky had cleared and in the west was a colorful sunset.

We parked at Blackhorse Road by the Strasburg Rail Road to watch the light show.

Working with my Nikon Z7-II set at 4000 ISO, I made this sequence of photos hand held.

When I very young, I learned to photograph lightning working with my dad’s 120-size roll film Rollei Model T. My choice of equipment has changed, but the basic technique is still very effective.
