Weather - Lightning over the Delaware Composite

Lightning over the Delaware River

This spectacular show of nature's fury, was caused by a fast moving cold front that descended upon the region in early Summer. This particular storm appeared to traverse on the Pennsylvania side of the Delaware River and the lack of rain between the storm and myself allowed me to capture many spectacular lightning strikes. This particular image is a composite of six individual exposures and was taken from the parking lot of the Palmyra Harbour clubhouse.
