Lightning Striking Anvil Clouds Over Yola Monsoon

by Ellie Hansen

Bright midday light illuminates a vast sky dominated by towering cumulonimbus anvil clouds stretching across the horizon near Yola. A jagged fork of violet lightning fractures the dark underbelly of the storm, illuminating the heavy rain sheets falling in steady vertical curtains. The foreground features wet, dark earth and scattered green foliage reflecting the sudden flash. Layers of gray and charcoal cloud bands recede into the distance, creating a deep sense of scale beneath the open sky. The electric blue channel of the discharge cuts sharply against the muted tones of the monsoon rain, ending with a bright, scattered glow on the distant ground.
