An amazing storm blew through central Iowa July 28, 2023. The color of the sky is not photohoped. It was such an incredible array of colors and light. I felt like I was under a warm orange glow to the east but if I turned around to the west, the sky was a deep indigo blue. These were taken between 8 pm and 10 pm. As the lighting progressed, there were two and three strikes per second just facing south. But all around me were strikes. hundreds of them per minute. I couldn't even use my lightning trigger as there were too many and it couldn't keep up. so eventually I just manually held down the shutter and took many burst.
