19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Cavernous Cloudstrike
On a night when I was out photographing, a heat lightning storm came through the northern sky. The result was this background lightning through a foreground formation of clouds. It reminds me of what one might see in a deep sky shot of a planetary nebula like the Ring Nebula.
