I have been looking though a lot of my older images in my Lightroom catalog, mainly to add images to my galleries here after the hosting move, but also to remember some of the fun times I had while making the images.

This image was captured many years ago in the Arizona desert during a summer monsoon storm that happened right at sunset.  That’s not why I am sharing this image though, I remember the night I shot this, and how I enjoyed the lightning being backlit by the setting sun, but the real reason I am sharing it is because of a trip to Idaho to visit family over Christmas.

You see, there is a large print of this hanging in the house of a family member and it made me realize that not only had I not added this image back to my online galleries here, I hadn’t really thought about the image in a very long time.  I did do some slight re-edits to the image before sharing it, but other than tweaking some shadows and highlights a bit, this is pretty much the way it was when printed.
