Perfect exposure, and great choice of lens focal length for this scene.
Once in a while, you just get ready and lucky at the same time.

Wow, what a fine lighting capture, and it basic editing! You chose a great location to take the image; the silhouetted foreground is wonderful in its variety of vegetation from, ummm, bushy thingies to poky thingies to a saguaro :-) It must have been quite an active storm to catch this much activity in a 19 second exposure, what a treat!

improvised "tripod" (since I was visiting and didn't bring one) = wobbly patio table and three folded up hand towels under camera and lens, then tried to use my body weight to keep the table from moving.

Way to go sweetheart, you really need to explain your improvised "tripod"! makes it an amazing capture!

WooHoo- you sure do know how to get a gal's attention. Sure, light, sound, fury (wait, strike fury, not a sense). Grand image.
