Shooting Stars & Thunderbolts

We have climbed Starlight Peak earlier in the day. On the way down we where chased by thunder and lightning. At last at camp, by sunset the clouds cleared up enough to reveal Thunderbolt Peak. The flower in the foreground is a shooting star and the Starlight Peak is just behind Thunderbolt Peak barely visible in the picture.
