Lightning

Uploaded: September 19, 2002

Description

This is my first attempt at photographing lightning. I set the exposure at 10". Should I have gone longer or shorter. It came out kind of grainy and I used a blur filter to fix that a bit. Maybe it was from the rain?

The frustrating thing that night was that a lot of times lightning bolts would strike during the second or two between pictures. This was the only bolt that I got. #9525
