Bitchin’ Storm Last Night

Posted on August 26, 2005




Afternoon Storm

Originally uploaded by jSchwa.

I was in the middle of a dream about living in the middle of France when I woke up at about 3:30 in the morning to hear nonstop thunderbolts and constant flashes of lightning. I decided to grab my camera and record some video of it from the balcony. The fact that it’s the middle of the night, and there’s a huge tree in the way, you can’t see much except for when the lightning flashes. The constant sound you hear is the rain pounding on the balcony roof along with the thunder.

And yes, my camera takes much better video than this, but I compressed the video down to a more managable size (the original was 31Mb, this one is a mere 416Kb), and it gave me a chance to play with Quicktime that I don’t usually get.

.mov File, 416Kb.

The photo is from another storm about 2 days earlier, but I was meaning to post it here anyway, so it fits.
