Tonight I got my first lightning photos. It was a frustrating process and I took over 400 pictures! 99% of them were awful or of nothing but the clouds. I always seemed to be a second too slow or get distracted at just the wrong time! I think the first capture was the best. Perhaps I get the money shot during the next storm! I'm now sorting through a bunch of "cool cloud" shots.
