When Lightning Strikes


I went on a short walk through our woods today and came across this tree that had apparently been struck by lightning. From the looks of the "stump" in the upper-left corner, I don't see how anything but lightning could've caused it to fall.

Cool! Your woods look very similar to ours, except I think (from what I see of the picture) that yours have fewer evergreens.

Lovely picture!

We saw a tree struck by lighting, once.... the wood was black and dryly bubbled. Pretty cool. :)
