Details:
The accompanying looped normal, half and quarter speed time-lapse animations and multi-frame mosaics show the movement of a persistent, close, wind-blown, cloud-to-ground, lightning strike in Murambi, Mutare on Valentine’s Day. The sequential video frames of the strike, which was about 300 meters away, were extracted from MP4 FHD 30 & 25P recordings taken by two Panasonic Lumix compact cameras looking through veranda windows from vantage points about 20 meters apart. Apart from drifting, the lightning channel breaks up into small beads before disappearing. The small bright artefacts on some images are reflections from raindrops on the glass through which they were taken.
