About We had a storm come up last night, so I grabbed the camera and gave a try on some long exposures, I wanted to get a lightning bolt. FINALLY got one.

LOL! Well, now that I've found out how to do the long exposures with my camera...the storms have become scarce! We used to have storms that raged all night, streaks of lightning over the lake every few minutes, some from one end of the horizon to the other...but now that I WANT them, we rarely get them. Oh well, summer's here, and my camera's ready...here's hoping!

Me and a friend were talking tody about how hard it is to get shots like this and I see one here.
Very well done

You GOTTA love the long exposure hopefuls that payoff in this way. I've managed to get some but nothing brilliant yet. Of course...not much chance in Southern California either. Maybe I should concentrate on the fires, eh? Or mudslides...or Hollywood types with their backside free leather chaps! :)

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Patience is a virtue, which is evident in this electrifying shot!

Would you email me Chels? I've lost your addy.

Ugh!
Those WHO have good luck are those who make their own.

Jeez! Go back to clicking the shutter and leave the keyboard alone, Sue!

Nice catch, RM! Patience gets you those kinds of shots.

To paraphrase someone, Those you have good luck are those who MAKE their own.

Armen, it was a long exposure. When the storm started I set up the tripod and camera by the window, and had the camera set on bulb setting at 5.6 aperture. I just held my finger on the shutter release until the sky lit up, and right after the flash let go. The storm lasted about 40 minutes, the sky lit up many times but there were only 2 good lightning flashes, most of the lightning was "in the clouds". The other nice flash came down behind that big birch tree on the right. I'm thinking of setting up some kind of portable and safe shelter where I can stand closer to the lake and get a better view.
