Caption | A brilliant bolt of lightning strikes a farm field in rural western Oklahoma south of Woodward. In the foreground, a ripe crop of wheat can be seen, while in the background, a combine can be seen depositing just-harvested wheat into a truck. The bolt illuminates the storm cloud with purple light. In the distance, approaching rain can be seen. This photo was taken with a lightning detection device, which triggers a camera's shutter when a sudden increase in light level is seen. | |
