Sure was. Personally, I have never seen such a cloud formation in all my travels around the world.

Thanks for sharing.

Sometimes, as a photographer, luck is on your side and other times, not so much!
I was shooting an industrial job for a heavy equipment and crane contractor and some bad weather set in, however, the construction crew kept on working. As the sky darkened, the rain intensified, and the thunder seemed to come in closer, I took what I thought was my last shot for the day but seconds later the electrical storm began. The sky and the entire site lit up like a giant strobe. Good shot eh!
So, I drove home, and proudly showed the image to my lovely wife who asked me if I was certifiably insane! She said something to the effect that I, the big shot, is running around a construction site with tripods, light stands, and electronic gear in the middle of an electrical storm- and didn't my mother ever tell me never to run across a field with a pair of scissors during a thunderstorm! It's a good thing I didn't tell her I had a scissor in my Swiss Army Knife- in my pocket- I guess that wouldn't, count. Oh- there was a magnet on my lens shade.
Well, the client did use the shot on the cover of their annual report!
