Lightning, and Other Storm Pictures
Dodge County, Wisconsin - July 7, 2008
Fond Du Lac County, Wisconsin - October 18, 2007
September 21, 2007 - With a squaline approaching from the west, I
headed to the east side of Horicon Marsh, and faced west towards Waupun. I'm always hoping to get a picture of one of the prison lights
getting struck, which happens fairly often. Still no luck.
October 1, 2006 - On highway 49, half way through Horicon Marsh, I got these lightning
pictures aiming to the west, and south. Check out the neat looking clouds in the first (8:18PM), and second (8:24PM), pictures, and the angle of the rainshaft in the
third (9:50PM) picture.
Columbia County, Wisconsin - June 6, 2006
June 30, 2005 - A squal line was approaching from the west,
so I headed to the east side of Horicon Marsh, to shoot lightning to the west across the marsh, getting pics 1-4, between
1:30 and 2:45AM. As it passed over, with lightning in all directions, I decided to aim north, and got the 5th picture at
2:51. After passing over, I aimed east, and got the 6th picture at 3:04. Total lightning pictures that night: 34.

Waupun, Wisconsin - June 23, 2004
May 24, 2004, while storm chasing with my brother in Iowa.
We pulled over for some good photo oppertunities of a nice updraft base. Using the Lightning Trigger, I
got the following shots including the first shot, striking only about a mile out in the field. The second is a close-up of
the base of the bolt.
