Photo of the Week

Given the impressive thunder and lightning storms we have experienced this past week, I thought it was time to include a photograph of a remarkable weather event or a natural phenomenon that was captured on film. I came across this stunning photograph that was taken after the eruption of a volcano in Chile. A plume of ash and gas reacted with the cool atmosphere, resulting in a spectacular electrical storm that is the very definition of  power and majesty. The remarkable photograph was taken by Carlos F. Gutierrez in 2008 and received 1st prize in the Nature category of the World Press Photo awards.
