| Caption | A brilliant cloud-to-ground lightning bolt strikes the earth near Enochs, Texas, on the afternoon of May 9, 2017. In the background is a wall cloud which produced a tornado only minutes earlier. This photo was taken with a lightning detection device, which triggers a camera's shutter when a sudden increase in light level is seen. | |
