About 4 years ago myself and my work colleague were traveling on counrty roads through Lincolnshire in the UK. We were heading straight into a big thunder storm with a lot of lightening happening infront of us as we drove into the storm area. I was the passenger in the car and so I took my phone out of my pocket and tried to catch a flash of lighting as my colleague drove into the storm. I took 3 photo's but I was very disapointed because I did not catch one flash of lightening. It was many months latter when I looked again at the 3 photo,s on my phone before deleting them, thats when I noticed a stange shape / anomaly in one of the photo,s. I have to say at the time of taking the photo's nothing could been seen in the sky apart from the intence lightening straight ahead. I saved these 3 photo,s to my pc and thats were they have stayed ever since. I was unsure what do with this photo ???? once I let it go on line its just out there, thats why I am writing to you now. Your site and your seem's to credit the people who see and film these strange anomalys. This not a fake photo, I am not smart enough on a pc to even try anything like that.As you can see there is nothing on the other 2 photo's taken at the same time, its strange ? I did send this picture to a well know Youtube site some months ago at their request but I never heard anything back from them, I hope you might be able to use this picture or maybe identify what it could be in the photo.
