Taking the perfect photo of lightning
Whenever there is a huge lightning storm and it's really bright, I find it so magnificent. That static electricity can light up the entire sky. Also, that such a shock can burn a tree to the ground and start humongous fires and other problems. Whenever I am at home or not otherwise preoccupied I like to bring out my camera and try to snap a photo of the lightning. It's extremely difficult to get a perfect photo of the lightning when it's fully streamed because one bolt of lightning goes so quickly. You basically have to guess when the next lightning will strike. When I got the nicest photo of lightning I was so stoked, it really was a highlight of my photography.
Can you post that photo on your blog? It would be a cool addition, and I'd like to see it.
ReplyDeleteThis is a good explanation of exactly how it is. Lightning really is a fantastic phenomenon and that when we get to experience it every once in a while, you get really exited and take advantage of the momment. But being able to take a picture of it and experience the same thing later? Now that is incredible. Good blog!
