Early on a Sunday evening a couple of weeks ago I stepped out onto the back deck and saw this, along with a few lightning flashes.


I headed up to the bay. Thunder was rolling. The sky over the bay was dark, and gulls were flying wildly.
I was surprised to see quite a lot of people still on the beach, including a group of boys with a wave runner in the water.


I guess they just hated to stop. But when huge rain drops and more lightning started, they finally decided to call it a day. Wisely, I think.

Sorry I couldn't capture the lightning.
Tom, Sandy and Imax would love it if you would drop by at Sky Watch, and have a look at the many other photos offered by participants.
