Description
'Meridian Sparks'
This morning I ran some errands after working overnight... as I headed back out to my car in the early twilight I noticed some flashes off to the distant southwest, storms? They certainly weren't in the forecast but a review of radar showed some weak showers meandering towards the area. I headed off to Riverside Park in Yankton hoping that at least the clouds would make for a nice sunrise. Rain chased me back to the trees several times without much in the way of lightning, then this little storm cell took off and produced a handful of nice cloud to ground strikes! I've had this shot with lightning and the historic Meridian Bridge on my mind for a few years, but conditions have just never come together. I had to stop myself from celebrating and making the dock move after this bolt flashed right after I clicked the shutter! I finally got my shot!
