Thunderbolt and lightning!

Thunderbolt and lightning! A storm unleashed over a Northern Idaho forest is an amazing and terrifying sight. This is a composite of several photos taken moments apart from the same vantage point.

After several minutes of this, my very sensible in-laws called me inside to prepare for possible consequences: a power outage, or even a forest fire ignited by lightning. Thankfully, we were spared all that—this time.
