Hmmm... I've seen some great displays of distant lightning lighting up distant clouds when camped on large lakes during the evening, but never these sprites. There's a link on the page showing how to look for sprites... the lightning above the cloud is much larger that the cloud itself... a dark sky might be necessary to see them. Another reason to stay by the water's edge at night.
