1107_1223 Lightning
In today's upload I'm catching up on recent, miscellaneous images. This one is from two nights ago, when a terrific storm rolled through southwestern Saskatchewan. As it approached, I shut down my computer and took a drive to intercept it. Set up near these abandoned farm buildings just as the lightning began to strike. I was able to shoot from the relative safety of my car, with the 18-105mm and a polarizer, aperture at f/11 and shutter on "B". Tripod, cable release, focus on infinity. ISO 200. Shortly after I made this shot, the rain began, hard and windblown, and it became impossible to keep my lens clear.
