      Earlier in the day, 180° from the OP lightning bolt above, is this tree and a gap in the new border wall. I've been to this silly tree three times now trying to get the right shot of it. It's hard because most of the day the sun is straight behind it/overhead. By the time the light is better, the sun is setting behind the ridge.

      Anyway, tree and stupid #BorderWall San Rafael Valley, Arizona.

          I talked to one Border Patrol agent who told me that another agent's truck had been hit some years ago. The agent driving the truck quit after that.

            @Mikal when your god expresses their displeasure with your caterer choice via thunderbolts it's a good time to quit.

            Always a good time to quit from that job nowadays

              The other nice bolt I caught a couple days ago, right near the new #BorderWall in San Rafael Valley, Arizona.

              Weird. I'm noticing in this pic and the OP lightning shot that there are these blobs of purplish color in the shot. That isn't there in Lightroom or in Mac Preview, so it must be something messed up in Mastodon's compression algorithm.

                  I don't know what that is. Typically the bottom of canyons like this have floodgates and those panels get put in last.

                    @Mikal I was trying to be witty! But if you've never heard of sycamore gap I would just be confusing you. Sycamore gap is on Hadrians wall in the north of England. The famous sycamore tree was recently cut down by vandals and this image reminds me of what it used to look like.
