Normally I’m not awake at this hour, unless up all night. Fortunately, a set of overnight shifts ending at 5 a.m. left me an opportunity to shoot lightning around dawn, when a small cluster of elevated thunderstorms formed over the eastern countryside of Norman. The CGs were fairly close, but confined to a small area. Still, practical prudence dictated remaining in the car and trying for the steadiest shots possible from within a Faraday cage.
