fluke

I was taking a picture of this cloud standing at the riverfront in Phnom Penh last month.

In the next nanosecond there was lightning inside the cloud and I just clicked again, without really thinking, and captured this! I have spent hours – even in the days of film cameras – trying to capture lightning. So getting this fluke shot was a big thrill. Some day I hope to catch a lightning bolt on camera, but for now this is enough to make me happy!

A friend commented that there’s a little bear-face at the base of the cloud. Looks like a cuddly little kitten to me!
