Description
A brilliant and powerful bolt of lightning strikes down into the suburbs north of Tucson, Arizona during a summer monsoon season thunderstorm. The title of this photograph is inspired by the lyrics of the song "The Wheel" by Jerry Garcia and Robert Hunter.
"The wheel is turning and you can't slow down
You can't let go and you can't hold on
You can't go back and you can't stand still
If the thunder don't get you, then the lightning will"
"'Round, 'round, robin run 'round
Got to get back to where you belong
Little bit harder, just a little bit more
A little bit further than you gone before"
"The wheel is turning and you can't slow down
You can't let go and you can't hold on
You can't go back and you can't stand still
If the thunder don't get you, then the lightning will"
"Small wheel turn by the fire and rod
Big wheel turn by the grace of God
Every time that wheel turn 'round
Bound to cover just a little more ground"
"The wheel is turning and you can't slow down
You can't let go and you can't hold on
You can't go back and you can't stand still
If the thunder don't get you, then the lightning will"

Thank you, Carolyn! Yes, it was a Wow! moment to witness this incredible, strong lightning bolt. I'm just glad I was ten miles away!

Great!!! Douglas what a wonderful shot ! An angry sky and a song that tells you run, if the thunder doesn't get you the lightning will! It's all very intense. But then we learn that you hear the thunder and the lightning if you hide well in the end it doesn't get you, you just have to wait for it all to pass. Congrats lory
