1106_2295 Lightning
It's thunderstorm season! The weather forecasters have issued extreme storm warnings for the past two days, and one of them turned out to be a spectacular show. I positioned myself on the outskirts of town, and shot from the relative safety of my car. Tripod, shutter on "B", cable release, focus on infinity, aperture set somewhere in the middle (I kept moving it around between f/8 and f/16, depending on how close and bright the flashes were). This image was a little overexposed, but I shoot RAW so the lost detail was easily recovered. Val Marie, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Best large, on BLACK...
