Description Pure chance. I'm so amazingly proud of this. After the shot, the lights went out (as you can kind of see), and I high-tailed it back home. I think the storm was chasing me.

oh man, that is amazing, I love thunder and lightning. Nature is so freaking cool, you're so lucky, I should hang out outside with a camera when the weather is bad, maybe I'll have such luck.

Wow, sure is a lucky picture. Hard to belive you only had a one second exposure. Usually bulb mode is much more efficient with an iso less than 100, but since you're shooting digital, I guess you wouldn't really have that option. Very cool though, I love lighting shots.
