Gilbert Arizona Temple

Some awesome storms in the vicinity of the Gilbert Temple tonight. You can see this storm clearing out the remnants of the previous dust storm.

Another fun night chasing lightning at the Gilbert Temple. I had to wait out the dust storm first. You can see the remnants of it on either side of the Temple.
For quite a while there wasn't much detail in the clouds, so I was very happy to end up with this.

Not a good angle, but here's tonight's Blood Moon and the Angel Moroni statue on the Gilbert Temple.

The angle was bad and conditions were less than ideal, but it was fun to shoot.

A strange sunset last night, thanks to the smoke from the Rafael Fire.

The smoke from the Rafael Fire ruined a potentially dramatic sunset and cast a strange quality of light on the Gilbert Temple last night.

An amazingly beautiful moonrise tonight. I was blessed to have the cloud cover clear out just in time!

Moonrise tonight. I lucked out with a gap between the departing clouds and the ones coming in tonight that will probably obscure the eclipse.
