Rain + lightning ~ Au Sable Forks, NY - in the Adirondack PARK • click to embiggenI'm not much for all those night-into-day pictures - the ones that are made in the dark of night but end up looking like day. And yes, I know they don't look exactly like day because there are always a wealth of details that give the game away. But that said, to my eye and sensibilities, my preference for night pictures are those that look like the night.

In any event, about an hour ago as I was out picturing an incredible rainstorm, lightning, for a split second or so, turned night into day.
