Day 4 is Hard. Not CD4. I mean this month’s Prompt on the photo challenge: Illuminate (get signed up with Belle over at Scrambled Eggs!)
So I have something a little different to share with you. It may be completely against the rules, since it’s not technically a photograph that I took today (it was Oct. 2010)… the main part is actually not even a photograph, it’s a video. But in keeping with the little theme I have going to share things that make me happy, I thought this video was perfectly illuminating, and brings back good memories of a MUCH more carefree time. The back story? It was taken on our honeymoon. That night we had dinner at a pizza place in Brunswick (near St. Simon’s Island, GA) and we came outside to find this virtual light show. I know it looks like nothing but a dark, cloudy night, but just click the link below and wait (you guys know how to do it, I’m sure;) Oh… and anyone who wants some added entertainment should turn the volume up loud enough to see if you can catch the “That’s What She Said” joke I throw in during the little banter that passes between DH and myself. Classic. And pretty illuminating, I think.
Click here to see the real thing…LIVE! and hear DH and I go on and on for a minute about how COOL it was!




I think this is perfectly fitting! The purpose of the challenge is to create a daily opportunity to be creative, be that with a camera, a video, a new or a past image, whatever! This is a super cool video, too! I have never seen anything quite like this, either. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! I’m glad you like it! Even growing up at the beach, I only ever got to see these sorts of heat lightning storms a couple of times in my life. But they are amazing to watch! Thanks for stopping by! I’m loving this photo challenge… Lots of fun and such a great distraction:) – Kate
That is awesome! So beautiful! I love lightning!
