Lightning squared..
"The difference between the right word and the almost-right word is the difference between the lightning and the lightning-bug," -Mark Twain

I was taking some time exposures of lightning bugs in the woods at late dusk when some heat lightning lit up the open area in the background.

After the usual Photoshop antics I came up with this.

3. Until I got to the heat lightning shot I was going to call it "Faerie lights in the forest"..
