More of the beautiful lightening strikes!








We've got a storm coming in from the NorthWest at the moment so I am trying to post these and then shut this beast down...
These lightening strikes were quiet a ways off when I took them and that is why the photos are grainy. I had to shoot at ISO 800 and I hate that...But they were still awesome. I also had to stand out in the yard and I'm not to comfortable doing that when a storm is approaching...I like our front porch even though it is not much protection either...
I wonder if any of you watched the Discovery channels show on lightening recently...It was a truly awesome show. I've watched it 3 times already and never tire of the beautiful shots and information on lightening...truly amazing. I recommend watching it and there is a photographer on there that is truly amazing and crazy too...but his photos are gorgeous...If I have time later I'll find the website for the show and try to find the photographer too...
Have a good night:o)
