Lightning show...

Post by Indy »

Had a very nice storm system run through the area on saturday night (for a change) and I managed to get some really nice lightning shots :)

The last one is my favorite :)


We're hoping for some more rain through the area tonight, the more we get, the better :)

I used my 30-70mm lens, on a tripod, iso100, f16 and a 30 second exposure. That way I was sure to get at least a couple of strikes :)
