The adrenaline was certainly pumping that night. This storm eventually ended up over the top of me and the eerie sounds from it, I wish I could have recorded. Patience is the key when it comes to storms and photography but when you get a frame like this you just jump for joy, I know I did a lot of yahooing!! :-)

Not particularly just following the storms progress to the beach and being in the right position at the right time. More so luck :)
