Just no. I have no words. Stunning captures. Thanks for adding another photographic subject that I have to obsess about for the rest of my life. 😭

Oh, wow! Magnificent. I was in Derby in 1975, didn't see anything like that back then.

From what I’ve heard around 50-100km away from a strong storm on a moonless night is ideal.
