Lightning, overhead wires, tank train, tanker, truck, and you. Kudos to you for the great shot and mother nature for building the tension in the scene.

Nice job! I have tried for a week for a capture like that. I love the monsoon season! PCA here.

Even more spectacular than the last spectacular shot.

Well deserved POTW NScalemike! Mother nature's fury at its best!
Posted by Lisa Ragsdale on August 19, 2008 
Yes, it is a very dramatic shot and PCA from me and you deserve it. I also like to note the little things: The edge of the storm is quite visible in the upper right of the photo. And it looks like there is just a piece of cloud covering up the source of the lightning. Good work, Mike.
Posted by Lee Baxter on August 19, 2008 
Top choice for POTW, congradulations Mike. Regards Lee

I just have to agree with all of the comments. It is like leroy Anderson's Grand Canyon Suite.
Posted by Kevin Katta on October 14, 2008 
MEGAwatts of static electricity and a gasoline tanker--they go together so well . . . Awesome catch!
Posted by Kit Fassett on October 25, 2008 
This is one of the best shots posted on Railpictures. I kept thinking about Ben Franklin flying a kite in weather like this. I think your almost a nuts as Ben was. It must have been fun!
Posted by Sanky on January 2, 2009 
Lightning makes the shot even better!
