Awesome! What were the exposure times for these images?

or Create a video response Thanks to all for the kind words! @r7stuart These were 20 second exposures. I did perform some batch processing on the files in Photoshop to brighten some things (as well as register them and other simple adjustments). Check out my Caelum Observatory website (just google it) and look in the nature section of the Mount Lemmon picture gallery to see a combined result.

This is one of the better weather related videos I have seen. You have some serious talent.

I remember growing up in Southern Arizona, we used to bring our chairs out side and sit for hours just to watch the "electrical storms" as my mother used to call them. Imagination cannot come up with what God can create!
