Electric Saguaros

Saguaro National Park West, Tucson, Arizona view map

Catching a nice bolt of lightning beyond a grouping of giant Saguaro cacti.
This is a 0.5s exposure, so I was lucky to get this one (although I was
firing off a long series of 0.5s exposures hoping to catch something).

As luck would have it, you certainly did capture the lightning perfectly! I love how it contrasts with the more fluid shapes of the landscape. Sensational in black and white!!
