Stormy Weather

[Marie Hass]

A nod to Lena Horne.

F8, ISO 100, 70mm, Aperture priority. Shutter speed range 2 S to 25 S.

Please don't worry. I was under cover shooting out, so was not out in the open with lightning.

Nice shots.

[Donald]

A wonderful set of images.

But that last in the set just blows me away. You've got a great exposure for the land and the village/town, on top of which you have superb lightning in the image.

I can't see any EXIF data so don't know what your settings were, but I am fill of admiration for a really high quality bit of photography.

+1 to what Donald has written, Marie.

You have a wonderful set of images. I particularly like the clouds rolling over the hills in the first image. The details and textures are wonderful.

[Marie Hass]

Hi, Donald. I listed my settings in my post. I hope that helps? The best part of this storm was that it came through at dusk, so there was some ambient light. Then, this was the first time I used Aperture priority as opposed to Manual.

Forgot to add that I prefocused on the far hills, then set to Manual.

Thanks Manfred. I was awestruck watching the downburst from across the river. It was incredibly powerful.

Mentioning Lena Horne gets a +1 right out of the gate.

But #3 is print worthy. Nice shot!

[FootLoose]

This set deserves a 'Wow'! I am particularly taken by that first image Marie. That is a great narrative.

[Marie Hass]

Thanks, Nandakumar.

I love watching the storms as they roll through.

Love, love, love Lena Horne!!!!

Thanks, Glenn. You don't live that far away from me. Maybe 3.5 hours.

Nice series Marie.
I've never have the opportunity to shot such experience, you make me eager to do so.

[Marie Hass]

Thanks, Greg!

Glad you like!

Living where I do is such a blessing.

what can I say that hasn't already been said? Superb?

[Rainforest]

That last shot is really powerful!

[bnnrcn]

Very nice set Marie, the last image is my fav

[mknittle]

I cannot add to what has been said but the last Image is one of the best lightning shots I have ever seen.
One more reason I am looking forward to moving to the Midwest.

Thanks, Greg.

I do so love storms.
