Lightning 2
Taken 6/27/2009 in central Illinois. This was my first session attempting lightning photography. It was the ideal night for photographing lighting, because it was off in the distance and it hadn't started raining yet.
This image was drastically over-exposed, and I nearly deleted it from the camera. I used Lightroom to recover the highlights, drop the exposure by two full stops, bump the contrast, increase the black clipping, and darken the dark tones.
Camera: Canon 350D
Lens: 24-104 @ 28mm
Exposure: 10 seconds at ISO400 and f/4.
