It was shot by Kaituna Valley resident Matt Searles over Lake Ellesmere last Wednesday night. :smile:

In last few years this kind of storms are normal for this part of Europe..because of Alps (cold air) and small surface of sea (hot water) in every change of temperature there is a chance for good storm..

I didn't know that specific a name for it, but it would seem so, based on what I read about those. The colours were more defined though polarised sunglasses which helped me to notice it in the first place.
