Description Day 152 of 365

I was really hoping for some local storms this night, but the closest they came was a couple counties north of us. Ended up shooting this storm, which was nearly 30 miles north of me. Luckily, it was still dropping a few visible CGs. I put on my 50mm f/1.4 and fired away. Stood in a field (right by an electrical plant, great idea lol) for about an hour watching these storms slowly move northeast. Not all of these bolts struck during the interval of one photo - this is a stack of 3 images.

wow! incredible shot the storm looks amazing but what i really thought that made this pic so great is that at the same time, the street lamps are BRUUSSTING with light! thats pretty sick

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FramedByNature In reply to mizu292 [2011-06-12 05:06:18 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! That's because I was exposing the shot for the lightning. The street lamps were obviously much brighter than the distant lightning, so they ended up being really bright. I'm happy with how it turned out
