Lightning Strike Over Desert Night Near Amman

by Jonas Stone

Cold moonlight washes the undulating dunes of the Jordanian desert in shades of pale silver and deep charcoal. Above, thick bands of storm clouds race horizontally across the sky, their undersides illuminated by a jagged bolt of white lightning that splits the darkness vertically. The ground below is textured with soft ripples of sand and scattered dark rocks, while the wind visibly bends the sparse, dry grasses into the foreground. A faint blue glow lingers at the horizon line, against the stark white flash. The edge of a dry wadi bed cuts sharply through the lower right corner, at the base of the vast, turbulent sky.
