Artist's Comments

Taken from my window on Friday, June 23 at 1:30 am.

The storm was amazing. I couldn't sleep anyway, the bright flashes kept me up. The blinds were open, at my wife's request, because thunderstorms help her sleep. I got the camera out and started snapping pictures. Over a hundred and fifty shutter clicks later, I had maybe a dozen good captures.

The violent maelstrom took out power in some areas. In my rooftop apartment the noise was rattling the window panes. It was an awesome display.

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run. You missed the starting gun.
