After no less than six alerts from The Weather Channel app on my phone, warning me about the thunderstorm that was already raging outside my house, I thought, “Ok, maybe they’re telling me something here.” So, I grabbed the camera, tripod, and remote, and decided to try to capture those elusive veins of light. We don’t have anything exciting around here like mountains or valleys to make a compelling photograph, but I was ok with that. I just wanted to catch some magic. I had taken 24 bulb shots of varying lengths (I have no lightning trigger), and was still feeling quite patient. But then I hit jackpot with number 25. That was it. I knew I was done. I knew I had my photo of the day, captured from underneath the overhang of my porch, which kept me and my camera nice and dry.
