You cannot capture thunder in a photo, and its partner, lightning, is very difficult to capture in a picture. Thunder sure does capture our attention though. Listening to a late summer thunderstorm and the cracking boom of a thunderbolt arrests our attention. For many people, the sound of thunder evokes fear and trembling. Certainly, I am not going to recommend that you get outdoors to go golfing, boating, or hiking on a ridge during a thunderstorm. However, next time there is a thunderstorm, do not ignore it. Go to the window, pull the car over for a bit, or sit out on the porch and take in the sounds of thunder. Close your eyes and just listen. Then, take some time to meditate upon the powerful emblem of thunder.
