Skywatch-Lightning

It is the end of the year where it is raining season again. I took these photos last week, it was scary to stand near the window when the lightning was strucking, I was afraid my camera would attract the lightning.

From a very dark black night to........

A stunning purple sky

Look on the left side where you could see the faint lightning which turn the dark black night to a purple sky......beautiful but scary when the thunder started to roar.

    Thanks for dropping by my blog with the nice comments.
    Tabib, the 1st photo is just a dark black sky with nothing in it...lol. It was to show the difference in the sky (black and purple).

    Hi Alice, I don't have a cooking blog. Maintaining SJ Daily Photo is quite a task for me. I doubt I will be able to maintain 2 blogs well. However, I really enjoy cooking very much. Probably can send you recipes of dishes that I have tried. Or try to work on a blog to share my recipes. I think my sis would go crazy when she sees me bring my camera into the kitchen and clicking away as I cook...hee...hee..!

    Hahaha...I always did that whenever we go to any restuarant, before they started attacking any food, I would click away the food. It looked good....I got a food blog but am revamping it cause it looked too messy.

    The food blog only contain very little recipes. Looking forward to your food blog.
    I did a video on my curry chicken but cant figure out how to use the microsoft movie maker to combine the various video so i might just post the video without editing...lol.
