At least 10 lightning strikes seen, Kontiolahti

Painful twist with daylight and rain, but Karri Pasanen and I drove a couple of times to take pictures. I had pretty bad luck myself, but Karri got a few screens to succeed the night before.

Personally, I was left empty-handed until we set off on another trip. First, the sun set on the horizon below the clouds, painting the landscape a magnificent color. The result, of course, was a rainbow that put a little hurry on the clogs. The rain was considerable at this point, and only a couple of the pictures taken of the rainbow were successful. We continued a little distance after the thunder front, and ended up at the shore of the pond. We took the treadmill cameras to the stations as the thunder was receding at a good pace. Between exposures, I had to dry the lens together, as drops appeared in the images as soon as the drying was done.

One drying of the cell was caught by this. Didn’t become a waste trip and I’m more of a swimmer happy. The picture was taken about a meter from Karr’s camera, so we recorded pretty similar pictures. Fortunately, image envy cannot be created :).
