r W a r r i o r . N e t May 29th, 2009, Summer Thunderstorm |
 |
| This wasn't a storm chase, as really I just needed to venture down to Olde Towne Gaithersburg, Maryland for these shots. This was the second good thunderstorm in two days. This cell was a bit stronger and was accompanied by a few severe weather reports, which the previous days storms did not have. The photos were taken from atop the parking garage located in Olde Towne. I actually mananged a decent lightning shot on this storm, even considering the bright conditions (and shorter shutter speeds).
