Location
Taken with the sunsetting behind at The View Campground, Monument Valley in the Navajo NationTime
Dusk, half an hour before sunset with the sun directly behind, whilst a huge thunderstorm approached from the north eastLighting
The sunset added to the red glow of the rocks, whilst the dark sky and lightning from the thunderstorm provided a suitable dramatic backdropEquipment
Nikon D90 with an 18-300 mm lens on a tripod, as revealed by the shadow....Inspiration
Inspiration was completely by Mother Nature - an incredible landscape with a thunderstorm breakingEditing

A longer exposure time to try to catch the lightning strike, and a bit of guesswork to time it!!
