Some interesting stuff in the Tesla Oatmeal comic that I had not heard before.
Thanks Oatmeal…

Rochester Lightning Storm
It’s a good thing the RIT Big Shot took place earlier in the evening because shortly after it was all over a storm moved through the area so quickly and forcefully it felt like a hurricane.
I took the (rare) opportunity of being out alone and with my camera to attempt some lightning shots.
Boy am I glad I did!
RIT Big Shot 27
I made it to the 27th RIT Big Shot last night. The venue would have been perfect for the whole family this time but we felt everybody is still a little young to be out that late during the week since so they had to sit this one out.
This is hands down the most people I’ve seen at a Big Shot yet. I’ve heard it was somewhere around 1500 but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was more than that. The entire SeaBreeze park was packed, It seemed like there were hundreds of people assigned to each of the lighting areas.
As always, the picture was online before I had a chance to check (ya gotta love Digital Photography). I thought it came out beautifully but check it out for yourselves below:
I managed to sneak my own picture (handheld as they didn’t allow tripods in) with one hand while lighting things up with my other:
Sorry it’s a little shaky 😦 I still thought it came out pretty neat.
