storm in Wyoming

We just had a wonderful weekend in Douglas Wyoming (home of the jackalope) at Amber's brother's wedding. It was very enjoyable (pictures to come). On the way up there (Thurs night) we were kept awake while driving (a good thing) by the fabulous lightning storm all around us. Finally, around 9 pm I couldn't stand it any longer and Amber consented to us pulling over off of I-80 and take some shots for 15 minutes. The kids were pretty much all sleeping anyway. This image was 8 exposures of 8 seconds each taken on a tripod at f8. No reason for the 8's... it just worked out that way. I took the images to photoshop just to lay them on top of each other with the layer style "screen" and hit the save button. I would like to try that again some time, but zoomed in a bit.
