There were some fairly dramatic bolts of lightning snaking out the sky during yesterday’s storms. This is one of them, touching down in Carroll Gardens. Woodendesigner, who dropped this into our GL Flickr Pool, writes: “So I stepped out into my front yard to check out the storm and saw a pretty nice lightning strike (not this one). I thought to myself….. ‘Hmmmmm I should get my camera out’. This bolt hit about five seconds after I stepped back out with the camera. A pretty close strike to where I am in Carroll gardens.”
