August 20, 2006 - 'Hawk in flight' this guy and some of his friends were very patient with me. Hopped from one pole to another while I adjusted my ISO, speed and all till I got something decent and light failed me. started like this and at other times he just patiently stared at me. Return to NM in very stormy conditions. For once lightning didn't look so cool :)!
