Lightning Bolts hitting behind a religious cross. This is the real deal. I did not photoshop the cross in. This was an incredible night of photography for me. Sometimes I see something and it becomes an image that I work on. And sometimes it take me years to get the storm to be in the right place at the right time. And even more ME being in the right place at the right time. When I saw this cross located on 40th street in North Phoenix, ( Paradise Valley) all lit up I thought this would be a great Image. It was my shot for the year of 2006. What is AMAZING it was the first storm of the season that year, I got to this location in about 5 minutes and got a few images in about 20 minutes. This was taken 7/24/6 at 9:14.17PM. It was meant to be. Someone above was looking out for me.

Kudos to you my friend. Lightning photography is partly about luck, but also good planning, scouting and a whole lot of patience. You saw the image and nature helped make it a reality.
