Description
Sometimes accidents just happen, and in this case it was a happy accident. A bolt out of the blue. I was checking my exposure for a completely different scene, and as I pointed my camera at the sky over the Tucson Mountains west of Tucson, Arizona, I was surprised by an unexpected lightning strike. The startling bolt caused me to depress the shutter button completely, capturing the return stroke of this powerful lightning bolt in Saguaro National Park. It is, and probably will remain my only hand held photograph of lightning.
