This is my nicest recording I have ever made of a storm and there's a
lots of dynamism in there. I recorded this in a really big storm in the
night on 26th
of August, 2004. I wake up but not because of the lightning. I live
near a big city, so I can see the red lights of the clouds in the night
sky. I have seen a pulsing light from the window and I thought, there
will be a storm. Because I like photographing lightning so I caught my
cassette recorder and the mono mic in my left hand and the
photographing set in my right hand and I run down to the first floor
and went outside to the high-stand in the garden. Running out I saw
some intracloud lightning and heard the thunder and they struck closer and closer. On the high-stand I standed
up the photographing set and started to take some photograph of
lightning. The storm lasted about three hours but I was so lucky
because of there were the most lightning and the coolest thunder sounds
in this five minute. Lightning struck frequently and frequently and I
was more frightened and more frightened...the sky seemed to blow out
until 2:40 seconds. Then everything become quiet but I thought that the
lightning is gonna have to struck nearby in the town!!! And this is the
nicest moment: I waited for this event, and at the end, IT HAPPENED and
started to rain...This sound recorded by a Grundig
cassette recorder and a mono PHILIPS microphone so loud thunder sounds
are a bit distorted. You can hear the radio-crackling noise before the
thunder sounds.

When I made these recordings I have to keep the tape-recorder in safe. Unfortunately we haven't got other covered terrace, there is only way to go on that high-stand and carry there the recorder. And the wind can blow down it if it was on any of our new European Union standard narrow window sills. Other way I wanted to and still want to take photographs of storms and I had an old reflex camera put on a stative when I recorded this. Lightnings 'went' from West to North and I followed them...and I tried to be quiet as I could during the thunder.
