Lightning Over Sleeping City in Alberta Rain

by Marquis Aguilar

Vivid white lightning fractures the dark underside of a massive thunderhead, casting sharp shadows across the grid of a sleeping city below. From a high vantage point, the view reveals streets acting as faint gray veins amidst clusters of low-rise buildings and scattered green trees. Steady rain falls in visible diagonal streaks, blurring the urban sprawl into a soft haze of slate and charcoal. The tropical bright light of midday struggles against the heavy cloud cover, creating a stark contrast between the glowing storm core and the muted tones of the landscape. Puddles on flat rooftops reflect the sudden flash, while the vast expanse of the city remains quiet and still under the weight of the approaching weather. at the edge shows a single streetlamp flickering to life on a wet corner.
