Insane lightning photos

I don't tend to post too many links here, but this has to be seen:



Truely *incredible* lightning photos



As the thread describes, these are photos of lightning taken by a Frenchman in the northern Alps, looking down on the city of Geneva. I can't imagine the kind of courage it takes to step outside with a metal tripod when the base of the thunderstorm is almost level with you and you are looking *down* on lightning -- but the risk sure paid off in this case!

Love the lightning photos you have linked to.


This doesn't really belong here but since I don't see another way to contact you I thought I would just post it as a comment. You will find some of your photos at
