Dancing in the rain

A dancer caught on top of Cadbury Hill in Somerset. The weather closed in, and before we knew it there that thunder and lightning all round. We ran for cover - but all of a sudden the dancer's red dress stood right out against the green background. She threw off her shoes, ran and jumped for us on the wet hillside grass as lightning flickered around. Quite aside from the astonishing overspilt of the jump, I love the rain caught at high shutter speed.
