Lightning, which I presume that you actually meant, can be fun too... Ha

Hi bro, how goes it? Miss anything? Well yes, I missed my calling to be a top earning comedian. Ha

Did you hear about the old fellow who found the suppository in his ear?


Now he knows where his hearing aid is!! ;-)


Zing!! Ha

Yes, nature's great fireworks. A shame it was not closer to the camera. There will certainly come a day when it comes closer.

I'm waiting for something outside of the coast to get some lightning in the box. Unfortunately, it is quite rare that comes many within few minutes.

Regards Leif.

I'm going to try again to get closer footage, just worried about getting caught in a downpour or electricity in the air.

The water can be seen when coming and you just land. If you hover near the controller, do not be afraid of the electricity in the air, except if you can see it begin and run over solid surfaces. Unfortunatly, if you are hanging directly in a lightning channel, there's nothing to do except to get ready to grab the drones when it's falling. But how many are hit directly by a lightning every year ? Less than people who die from getting an ice cube down the trachea, so the chance I dare to take.  

Life is about taking the right chances.

Canadian spelling may differ greatly from what you are used to reading below the 49* parallel. ;-)

I meant that sometimes spell check kicks in and changes your words to it's. So, you have to give it a go again.

Yeah, that can get rather frustrating.

You definitely have to proof read and then battle it out with spell check.

Yeah, pay attention, and then proof read twice. I dislike strongly how this spell check has a mind if its own, that it can even insert words I never said, or those weird spellings from another land. Canada has our own language still considered English, but we have a different spelling for many words. Why doesn't this get through to it?

Yes, I've taken a moment to view the video again, just now. Cool.

I liked seeing the bright sparks of Lightning shoot across the horizon, from left to right. ;-)

Very calming, and you have a straight horizon. Good job.
