definitely worth it! thats some pretty lightning.
we're waiting for a storm here to clear the air.
Fantastic, Euphro! I tried and tried to capture daylight lightning last week. All I got was a very tired me, no lightning capture.
superb...and very very highlight worthy, if just for all your hard work!...great stuff
Woohoo! A highlight! Thanks very much; it makes it all worthwhile :)
I have a high-res version if anybody would like to have a look at it up close :)
wow, thats some serious work you've been putting in there, Euphro. well worth it, dude.
*sulks* no-one highlighted my lightning photos.. :)
nice photo though. getting a strike captured is really satisfying, and in daylight too. (it's much easier in the dark - I only shot about 150 frames last night!)
that'll teach me to be doing hijax proof of concepts instead of browsing for highlights of an evening :D
Thanks for all the kind comments. Sorry your shots didn't get highlighted, mat, they are spectacular. I'll stick the high-res version on Flickr and post a link ASAP :)
yours is better, to be fair. anyone can point an open shutter at the sky, getting shots in daylight is stunning. :)
What Camera did you use ?
oh excellent :) i tried to get some at 2am last night but it was all sheety, forgot in my -half asleep and being blinded by lightning- state about the best pic feature on the k800i! doh.
for a half second exposure that is some luck :-) Great shot, well done - the hard yakka's paid off. Congrats on the HL
Could you send some thunder up here please? We're wilting and need something to break it!
Oh wow. That almost looks as though it's headed straight for you!
Thanks Hward, but I didn't :) I'd just lost power due to the storm; my adsl modem had just been fried so I couldn't do any work; if you do the sums, 948 shots at 2 frames per second, even allowing for buffer refreshes, takes about 10 minutes. I don't think it was a bad use of my time :D
