Helpful Posts: One of the things I love about lightning is that there are all kinds of displays. This storm was a mix of cloud to cloud and cloud to ground.

Re: Lightning
These are very good. Are these time exposures? The second image is spectacular.

Re: Lightning
Both were shot !SO 100, f8, 70mm 13s. depending on how much ambient light I have, or how often the lightning is striking, it could be up to 30s. I try to be very careful with my exposures, as it is very easy to blow out the highlights of the lightning path.

Re: Lightning
Thanks, Dan!
I think I was a storm chaser in another life. At least that is on my bucket list!

Re: Lightning
Nicely captured, are you a storm chaser or just fortunate to be in the right place?

Re: Lightning
John, I do love storms, but not a chaser.
The vantage point I shoot from is my deck. I love it.
