I'm on the East Coast this week! I took this picture last night. The original was pretty crappy; underexposed and the focus wasn't all that great. But I processed the hell out of it and turned a crappy picture into a mediocre picture! This picture looks good from far away but pretty crappy at full zoom. In the used car business, they call that a "50-footer". Looks good from 50 feet away, but that's about it!
Developing high based storms over Belgium moved north towards The Netherlands.
These were fast moving storms so I had to act quickly to intercept them. I was just in time close to the historic town of Zaltbommel near the river Waal to capture these bolts.
A storm approached over the Pacific towards Acapulco Bay. For the next two hours, we got a spectacular, silent lightning show from our balcony. Strikes every minute or so. It eventually got close enough for thunder, but stayed dry.

A very wispy cloud moving quickly across the sky and over a grain elevator, gives the momentary impression of lightning.

Single shot. The lightning almost like sun casting its ray onto the sea.
Just another Storm in Maputo, Mozambique!
Since i´m living here, for 2 and a half years now, It is common to contemplate the beauty of the many Lightning Bolt Storms in this season.
This time i had the big luck of getting a far storm, without rain or wind (when i say wind i mean it...normally you can not put your head out of the window under penalty of flying away :) ).
I hope you enjoy a small sample of a true spectacle of nature!
An unbelievable lightning storm last night passed us by to the North. This is an 8-second exposure. To watch it in real time was just amazing. Constant flickering with bolts coming out of the clouds with a speed that seemed like a time-lapse.
Here is the video I took with my phone.
Walking around downtown Denver looking for photo opportunities when a storm rolled over and provided the most amazing light show.

Liberty Hill, Texas. Storm developed very quickly and I was positioned in front of its path, like an idiot. Worth it for this shot though. Quite spectacular!
The last day of the meteorological summer was also the best for lightning photography.
I chased a storm over the central and eastern part of The Netherlands and managed to take great lightning photographs in the valley of the river IJssel.
More photographs of this chase will follow.....
Last of my lightning captures that was worthy of posting taken down at Middle River. Waiting for the next time this can happen either here or at another neat location.
From previous post to this of the heron ... this view can give you a feel for how close the heron came in as I was about halfway out on this pier and the heron flew between me and the benches there at the end of the pier.
This morning was a wonderful light show. And through it all I never got wet! This one is a compilation of several lightning strikes taken at the beach in Deerfield.

Catching lightning the hard way, click and hope. There was so many lightning strikes that evening I was able to catch two, this one I had forgotten I had.
Een fraai gevormde CC (cloud to cloud) bliksem tijdens de stormchase van 7 augustus 2018. Een zwak jaar qua onweer, dit was 1 van de weinige hoogtepunten. Maar wel met een aardig resultaat!
Storm season has definitely started in Brisbane, and there was a nice display of lightning this evening. Here is the best of what I captured from my front deck. For this image I combined two different exposures
This is my first successful lightning photo. I took it last week from the verandah of the house we were staying at, at Diggers Camp in northern NSW, using a long exposure and hoping for the best! My family were walking on the deck, hence the shake of the lights at Minnie Waters in the distance. We had a few nights like this.
We are off to Darwin tomorrow for Christmas, so am hoping for more lightning photo opportunities!
I may not get a chance to upload anything before Christmas, so if not, Merry Christmas everyone.
