More Lightning, Please

Tucson, AZ

We have had a pretty disappointing thunderstorm season this year and I've been pleading
to the weather gods for more lightning. This is one of the better captures I got from
this thundercell that passed through Tucson on this particular evening. This is a single
30s exposure looking south towards Tucson, taken from my deck.
