Caption   A brilliant bolt of lightning, emanating from the ominous dark clouds of a severe thunderstorm, strikes a field near Olustee, Oklahoma. The unusual green color of the clouds is due to hail inside the storm. This photo was taken with a lightning detection device, which triggers a camera's shutter when a sudden increase in light level is seen.
