day123This projected would have been facilitated greatly if city planners refrained from installing a large sodium vapor streetlight directly west of my house.

Nonetheless, I enjoyed photographing the lightning tonight.

0.5 sec, manual, f/5.6, ISO 3200, focal length: 55 mm

Photoshop: auto contrast, curves, crop

Really cool, I love the light in the middle and the fade to black around the edges. Good job.

Thanks, Carm. It was a fun shot, but it took some patience.
