Before the lightning, there was thunder and hail.
Now the lighting, pure bolts of static electricity, is flashing horizontal across the sky, like a giant strobe or black light, pulsating from high up in the sky.
I tried to take photos, but of course my camera—or is it the user—just isn’t up to the job.
Changing it to high sensitivity mode, I was able to get these shots, but no matter how often I tried—there’s always a few seconds delay—I wasn’t able to get any good shots of that electric bolt blazing across the sky.

| Awesome, and very Halloweenish |

I know the photos are grainy, but they just might make a nice backdrop for Halloween cards next October.
btw: I’m much happier with the Celtics this evening then I was on Tuesday.
It would be nice if they could win the whole enchilada, but I’m just happy this evening didn’t end lopsided with the Lakers heading into the fifth game with a 3-1 lead.
Makes things more interesting this way...
I LOVE these!!!! Cool cool cool!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I don't know if your camera can do this but to get really nice pictures of lightening you need to set it to a really low ASA (100 or high sensitivity), set the shutter speed to several seconds (if possible) and the aperture to as small(large in numbers) as possible, and a tripod really helps too. These are some really nice pictures.
ReplyDeleteYou take some really interesting/terrific pictures, Karen. You could put together a great coffee table book sometime!!
