Lighting Over Town Hall
About Share PurchaseIt’s starting to get ridiculous. The minute I see the first bolt of lightning or hear the first rumble of thunder, I grab my camera and go running outside as fast as I can, intent on shooting as much as I can before the storms roll in.
The best case scenario for shooting lightning is to have lots of lightning and no rain. It’s a weird combination to be sure, but, the ideal one. The trick is to shoot a storm as it’s leaving or, better yet, to have a horrible storm just to the north or south of you. In the case of this photo, I lucked into the latter. There was a horrible storm to the south and I was fortunate enough to get lots and lots of lightning strikes with nothing but a few drops of rain.
As an aside, this was the first photo I’ve ever taken that gave me a lens flare from the lightning. It was cool enough that I almost didn’t mind it. Almost.
