Storm watching at Grand Canyon brings a rapidly changing show. Get your shutter finger ready.

And the sun sets on yet another beautiful day at Grand Canyon.
Absolutely wonderful captures my dear. Especially the lightning shot. Your header is a beauty too. You are having some fantastic summer storms lately.
Wonderful photos. I have tried so many times to get lightning but have never managed it yet! I am jealous. Diane
The trick to capturing lightning for me has become video then pull out the single frame.
Gaelyn: Very nice lightning capture. I haven't done this shot yet.
Wow. The Greatest Show on Earth. I, too, have never captured lightning. Amazing sequence. Amazing life! Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad you kept your camera handy. Things seem to happen fast at the canyon.
Wow! for that crack of lightning, Gaelyn. And the other photos are just as stunning. Thanks for visiting my blog even though I've been scarce. Hope to be online soon again. Have a wonderful day. (((HUgs))) Jo
Great captures of the Grand Canyon's sky. The lightning shot is great.
Absolutely wonderful post Gaelyn and amazing captures, especially that lightening bolt. Thank you for sharing your beautiful part of the world. Have a wonderful weekend.

Beautiful part of the world that you live in.
I was there once, just for a day, a few years ago, loved the spectacular scenery!
Great shots.

Terrific captures as always, Gaelyn! The lightening is a stunner! Love watching the storm move across the canyon! Hope you have a great weekend!

Great captures, especially the lightning. I've got a number of lightning photos on my blog, they're tough to catch but it can be done with a long exposure.
Thank goodness for movie maker!
You caught lightning! Wow! I would love to see a storm over the canyon like this…never have. I can imagine the drama played out!
I stand in awe of your photographs this week.

Spectacular set of storm images, as were the images you took when you went to Hurricane.
What an exceptional set of photos!! I am so jealous of the lightning shot!
Oh I LOVE this post Gaelyn!! You really captured some great images here.
Oh my! As if the Grand Canyon wasn't enough, you had to add a stormy sky and then a lightning bolt!!
Hi Gaelyn, I am a first-time visitor (but not the last) and followed the trail (sorry bad pun) from the Wlaine's Artic View. We had severe thungder+lightning storms here on the VA eastern shore last night and your shots were amazing to see. THANKS. Do feel free to drop into our little blog anytime…
