Here is one i cought during a recent storm after some not so good ones. It took me forever to get the exposure perfect and to be lucky too . 30 sec exp.
AWESOME shot! Wow. Love the purple colour, and that's a big bolt of lightning. You must be thrilled with this pic (I know I would be).
Yeah I had really wanted to for a long time then one night it just was lightning every where and I was like hey im going for it. 157 shots later I got this. Ironically this was my last one of the night. Frustrated from sub par shots i was like this is the last then im going in. right at the end of the exposure it struck! I was so happyy for sure
Hi Immski, Lightning is my favourite photos, but sooooo hard to get. Like you, it took me a long time to work out the settings, and by the time I thought I had them right, our storm season was over... So I am really looking forward to October when it starts again. I stood outside for three hours to get the shot below, click wait... click wait....of 120 trys, I got 4 keepers !!! I had no idea about RAW back then, so these were done in JPEG... Oh well ya learn I guess Here is one I got last January, colour is as shot : Hope you dont think I am hijacking your thread Regards Atlas Brisbane Australia
