photoblog image Lightning in Sky and Car

Lightning in Sky and Car

Image shot at the end of July at two o'clock at night. The thunder made me luckily awake so I could start capturing the lightning. Something I love to do. One day I hope to catch the lightning striking the top of the big building you see above. Which is actually very close to me.
Besides the two lightnings you can see a nice reflection in the window of a car.


TECH-INFO: using tripod, cable release and lots of luck to catch one of more lightnings during the exposure.
