The mountain areas of Taiwan are known for their severe and often unpredictable storms. I took this shot just after torrential rain, and an awesome thunder and lightning show.

I love the way the clouds are hanging just above the mountains, like the storm isn’t quite ready to give up.

It was a wicked storm, but was over almost as quick as it started.

Great colours. Great setting. Great mood. Really a superb photo. I miss the wild thunderstorms on the west coast. I love it when we get the occasional lightning storm

I know what you mean Leigh. We don’t get a lot of thunder and lightning here in Korea either, or at least where I am. Then again, maybe that’s a good thing. Often the quality of the electrical work here is spotty at best. Lightning might not be its best friend!

Sorry – I had to recycle an old photo. Too wrapped up with the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Your photo reminded me of of the many climates of Hawaii and I happened to have a Hawaii shot kickin around. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful shot. I’ve never been to Taiwan, but this scenery is certainly not what I would expect to see in Taiwan.
