Remarkable coincidence: Just as the webcam take a shot (it is told to take a shot every 7.5 min) there was a nice bolt in the sky and lightens the village.  :)

No one can imagine the enormous calculations that are needed to tell the cam *keep the button pressed* at exactly the time when the thunderbolt strikes.  [wink]
