You can't beat the feeling of a lovely thunderstorm happening outside while you're nicely tucked up inside. There's something brilliant about knowing that nature's doing its worst to rearrange the landscape design out there, but you're not about to get soaked or zapped by a billion volts from out of the sky.
The problem is that a decent storm doesn't tend to come around that often, unless you're fortunate enough to live up an Alp. For the rest of us, there's Thunderspace, a fab-looking app that does its absolute best to simulate the experience of a thunderstorm, combining lightning flashes (using the iPhone's camera flash) and stereoscopic 3D thunderstorm audio from Emmy-award winning nature sound recordist Gordon Hempton. It's certainly an interesting alternative to still life photography...
