Sunday night lightning…

There was a great lightning show from a slow moving cluster of storms over the south side of Albuquerque tonight. This first shot was a 39 second exposure that I took from the backyard. You can see the lights of a plane streaking across the frame as it departed and turned toward me. The storms had just moved south of the airport, and departing aircraft were obviously gettting routed north away from the convection.
There were also some faint “anvil crawlers” on the north side of the storms as seen below.
