Big lightning storm in Toronto last night.

Captured during the storm of 8th December 2016.

Shot from the Westcliff in Bournemouth amazing two hours of lightning, well worth standing in the rain!

Thunder and lightning: It is impossible for Juliana and Max to fall asleep when there are bad storms at night.

 

We just had one at bedtime last night. Short lived though. Wish we got more rain!

This was an amazing storm. My wife & I were sitting in the back yard enjoying a red wine, watching it approaching. The whole time I was thinking to myself, "I should go and get my camera, I should go and get my camera". Just at that point I received a call from a friend who was on his way back to Dookie, and was following behind the storm, saying how incredible it was. Procrastination over, I grabbed my camera and headed here so I was overlooking Dookie. I set the camera up on the tripod performing time lapse photos in the hope of capturing the lightning. The storm was so active that there was a lighting strike about once per minute. So, I ended up capturing quite a few, but these were my favourite.

I set out at 4am to shoot some new marketing content for a regular client at the Antioch, CA marina.

 

Well, as luck would have it, just after I framed up my shot, a burst of cloud to ground lightning struck directly behind the building. There was not a hint of any lightning after that, so I was pretty sure I was done for the day, as none of the subsequent photos were anywhere near as exciting as this one, lol.

 

Lens is the DFA 25mm on the 645Z. 3 exposure bracket.

  

I had originally not anticipated shooting lightning, because locally it is often so ephemeral. But while at the marina, it contiinued. So I quickly tried to think of where I could get an angle at which the lightning would reflect off the bay, and headed to the Morro Bay Natural History Museum. I took some long exposures to hopefully catch a flash of lightning and, while I expected the lightning reflections, the effects in the clouds were more than I expected. Photoshop helped with the noise. Morro Bay, CA

 

As I add this to a "most interesting" group, I add this note:

This photo has been at the top of my "interesting" list since it made the flickr Explore page and I have gotten responses from around the world. I assume the allure is the combination of lightning (with its attendant energy/electricity), landscape and reflection in a relatively uncluttered composition--at least that's what it is for me.

Knowing a thunderstorm was passing by, I rushed out my home trying tofind a good view location but in vain. Upon returning home disappointedly I found my balcony was the best position where I set up camera and waited patiently for these fierce lightning.

July 21 thunderstorm on the North Fork of Long Island.

The first of several good lightning makers on June 8th near Last Chance, Colorado. I don't get out of the car when this stuff is dropping out of the anvil, and even then it still puts me on edge. Seeing the prairie light up around a landing point makes up for some flinching.

XR713 is the last complete and uncut Lightning F.3 airframe. She was 111 Squadron's mascot airframe and gate guard for many years at RAF Leuchars.

The Lightning Preservation Group raised funds to purchase and transport her, still uncut, from Leuchars to their base at Bruntingthorpe.

We've been having some unusual weather this year like most of the country. I ran outside with my camera a few nights ago hoping that the booms I was hearing would lead to lightning. The sky was lighting up for a few minutes and I kept clicking hoping that I would get lucky. This was one of two that I thought were worthy enough to share. The wind was blowing hard and it starting raining, so I had to call it a night after this one.

Intense storms this evening that even included possible tornadoes throughout the state.

  

My very FIRST attempt to capture lightning..

  

I know capturing lightning is no joke, as it requires immense patience and its challenging but always its a pleasure to be watched thru photographs as there is not going to be a similar stroke the next time you capture it...

  

After reading a lots of articles on lightning photography, I was actually waiting to capture one and my time came in last night. It was raining very badly last night and it was thunderous as well.. Then came the lightning..

Though I was unwell, could not resist to take my camera out and try my luck.. Wow.... I was delighted with the output of what I received....

  

Do share me your comments on how my 1st attempt looks??

  

Thanks for viewing and commenting...

  

Have a great week ahead

This monsoon storm brought over a hour of bright heat lightning that didn't form good bolts as the rain passed. Bright heat lightning always make me think "Close encounters of third kind" movie scene

Original plan for the early morning trip was to capture the international space station over the cottages at Birling Gap .

Almost 3 weeks ago we had over 11,000 lightning strikes over a 72 hour period. Over 300 fires were started in California. Several of the fires are called "Complexes" because they combine several fires in close proximity. The two largest are over 375,000 acres each. The total of all Cal Fire Incidents is 1.8 million acres.

 

I have a long distance view & haven't seen more than a few miles or less in the last 3 weeks.

 

The sunsets don't occur when the sun goes behind the mountain, lately they happen when the sun sinks into a dense layer of smoke over CA's Central Valley.

Aritficial lightning from a Tesla Coil.

Summer time lightning here on Florida's west coast. The storms blow offshore, start picking up more moisture, and create lightning, I love our Lightning season.

Thunderstorm over Herford

Always wanted to do some Lightning shots. Today we had 'luck' with the weather, so I was able to get some!

The scale is humbling, can you spot the herd of cattle? Captured with a DIY lightning trigger June 11 near Bar U ranch, AB

 

This is a super wide field that was cropped. This anvil crawler was actually very close.

 

11 movie frames were used to capture this single event.

My best shot of a storm with 80+ lightning strikes per minute! After this shot I had to stop because the wind got too strong and shook my camera around way too much to get another stable shot.

"The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box." --

IMG_1361: I've never really tried to catch lightening before, but the sky on Friday night was awfully pretty. I didn't have a tripod with me so the results aren't terrific, but I got a couple of shots to share on my photostream :)
