A single lightning discharge produced a fairly normal-looking cloud-to-ground flash, in the back side of a thunderstorm complex, and simultaneously, horizontal filaments flung many miles through light, trailing precipitation, just under the anvil. The reddish effect here is real, unlike with a lot of old film shooting. The lightning was distant, brought into closer view by zooming and cropping. Its light had to pass through many miles of the troposphere, causing a natural warming of the light as atmospheric gases preferentially filtered cooler, bluer hues.
