We aren't as tough as we would like to think.

There's something very peaceful to me about watching a violent storm from a high rise. It makes me smile seeing the proud run for cover.

All seems quiet....

but there is a lurking terror.....
ready to strike.

  2. totally beautiful. there is something about this particular round of lightning shots that are inspired. last night when zeke was cowering from all the thunder i thought to myself "I hope DC is getting great shots of THIS storm. It's out of control!" rock on, here they are. props to the Job reference, a powerful touch.

  3. Thanks. I like this batch as well because you can see exactly from where the lightning originates. Usually, it's somewhere off in the distance, but a couple of these are right over Chelsea Piers. Literally
