Yeh, I was driving to Paniyiri when it was pissing down, thinking with my friend that we might have to change plans for tonight, so we still went to the festival when the rain had stopped and it didn't come back for all night. Score!

I had the same problem with some of my photos looking completely normal despite the weird light - then the next photo I took captured it well. WTFZ! Prolly the best one I took; none were particularly great. Like maxe I was trying to play "catch the lightning" because I was getting a lot of lightning across the rainbow. Couldn't use long exposure as where I was standing was getting rained on and I didn't want my camera to get wet(ter).
