That’s a cool picture. Trouble is, it’s a little too cool. If nothing else, the lightning would have to be traveling through the air, between the tree and the camera, until it hit somewhere near the middle of the trunk.
If nothing else, I’d like some proof it’s real, rather than just a cool looking picture.
