Well the next storm came..... at 1am.. I didnt get out of bed

 

We've only had one storm here in the past couple of months that produced lighting, and that was at night, most of the storms have been in the daytime...

Anyway, here is a couple of pics.

 

Wow very cool man

 

Very nice man!! Not really seeing the lightning makes for some cool lighting in the clouds. Especially the bottom right corner of your first pic..

 

that's most likely an internal lens/filter reflection. You'll only see the brightest part of the lighting strike reflected, so all the other branches probably wouldn't be visible. Very cool :-)



you can get a 'lightning trigger' that will sense the bright lightning and trip the shutter. That might take some of the fun/challenge out of it though. It would still be challenging though, as you don't know WHERE it will strike :-)

 

its like they knew when it was going to happen... Still good job on the pic. its really cool!!!

 

Nice pic. never seen it that big. You must have timed it somehow.

 

Awesome picture. That lightning is amazing.
