Observation

Wednesday night there was an awesome storm cloud. It was a clear night other than a approching thunderhead. It was bright white against the dark blue sky. I didn't see very many stars due to light pollution from Bee Ridge, but the lightning show was amaznig. I stood outside for about an hour with my sister trying to catch pictures of the lightning, eventually we shifted to video, which is cool because you can pause it then go frame by frame watching the lightning explode and light up the sky. I got two really cool ones, the rest my camera didnt pick up very well. The moon was towards the west waxing cresent. It was a really magical scene because the lightning was bright but there were only faint rumbles and a wonderful breeze. Summer storms are here.
