lightning

View On Black

 

I got this shot of one of the myriad of lightning strikes during last night's impressive electric storm!

 

I set the aperture to f/5 and 'bulb' on the shutter speed and kept my finger on the button!! There were so many lightning strikes I hoped I'd catch one but I got two ! This one is nice as it's not so huge and bright as the other.

 

Apart from a little tweaking in Photoshop to reveal finer detail, this is pretty much how it came out of the camera.
