struck! Posted on Thursday, July 19, 2012 by Lindsay Thomas last weekend Seattle’s skies went a little cuckoo. evidenced here: there is something very exciting about “firsts”. this was no exception, my {first lightning shot} was pretty fantastic. About these ads Share this:Like this:Like Loading...
well if you end up near a lightning storm, try leaving the shutter open for 10-30 seconds, that’ll increase your chances of catching that lucky moment! I didn’t have a tripod, so I was hand-holding for 2-seconds. That was one photo out of 250! Reply ↓
thank you! Worked better than when I was trying to “catch” the lightning right after it lit up the sky… Reply ↓
Love your first lightning. Wish I could get that moment :)
