Bolt From The Blue - a photo on Flickriver

Bolt From The Blue

            My favourite lightning is when a lightning strike leaves the top of the thundercloud and strikes down a couple of kilometers outside the cloud.
Here is one, shot with slide film and a wide-angle lens, so I cropped the scanned image a bit.
