This night scene is of a neighbourhood in San Francisco in August when California was hit by thousands of lightning strikes, precipitating the devastating fires that followed.  I keep thinking about the symbolism of lightning in the upside down year of 2020 and the image of the Tree of Life upended.  Curious how eerily lightning resembles an upside down tree with all its branches.
