too bad it did not struck you.

BenzWitRims · 07-07-2004, 05:49 PM

I was in the house it couldn't strike me!

BenzWitRims · 07-08-2004, 09:20 AM

Bump! :-)

strobi · 07-08-2004, 09:21 AM

Nice pic indeed. You don't need a pro camera to shot nice pics!

mynetporn · 07-08-2004, 09:22 AM

Nice pic.

woj · 07-08-2004, 09:32 AM

awesome pic, what camerea/settings did you use to grab that?

Dax · 07-08-2004, 09:36 AM

what are the specs and how did u shoot it ?

BenzWitRims · 07-08-2004, 10:32 AM

I was really bored one night and it was an insane thunderstorm. What I did was I set my camera to continuous shooting mode. I set up the camera on a tripod. Set manual exposure to 1 second and F2.8 (largest aperature). I just held down the shutter button and let it tack 1 second exposures back to back and out of about 600 pictures this was THE ONE!!! I guess I got lucky :-)

perfectodollars-gabrio · 07-08-2004, 10:34 AM

kickass picture man!

Firehorse · 07-08-2004, 10:36 AM

That is a bad ass lightning pic!

riosluts · 07-08-2004, 10:37 AM

damn that is a good lighting pic, what was your shutter speed set at

Scherfi · 07-08-2004, 10:40 AM

good timing! wow.

rowan · 07-08-2004, 10:51 AM

I'd love to give lightning photography a try, but all I have are the new fangled electronically controlled cameras... they're not rugged enough to be in the middle of a storm.

They say the best way is to chase the lightning into rural areas where there is no ambient light, hold the shutter open (with a remote release) and then close it as soon as you see the flash.

I guess your way is just as good, since it's not wasting expensive film.

mackey · 07-08-2004, 10:54 AM

Nice pic...

resurrected old pictures huh?

Manowar · 07-08-2004, 10:59 AM

BenzWitRims · 07-09-2004, 09:25 AM

Yeah I got lucky with this shot. Now I took that pic a couple years ago. I have a 5 MegaPixel Canon PowerShot G5 now. Next big thunderstorm I'm gonna set up my tripod in that same spot and just keep making back to back 1 second exposures hoping one of em catches some nice lightning. I actually have about 20 lightnind shots but they all suck compared to the one I posted on here. It just takes patience. I could do back to back 15 second exposures but anything 1.3 seconds and longer the camera has to process them between shots so 1 second is perfect! Also since at night it's hard to digital camera's to focus, it's best (if it has an electronic manual focus) to set it to infinity.

mcmc · 07-09-2004, 09:26 AM

WOW great pic !

okny · 07-09-2004, 09:27 AM

Awesome next time you should get a little closer

hahaha LOL. Well I'd have to say the lightning in that pic seemed VERY close! In literal terms I'd use the zoom on my camera, but then when it struck, it would be off to the side or somethin. I got SO lucky with that shot!!

EviLGuY · 07-09-2004, 09:32 AM

Pretty cool. Have to have a lot of luck to pull one like that off.
