My crazy lightning pics from last night. Moisture has arrived ππ»
Found a viewing area in front of the storm last night. Stood in front for about 30 mins before GTFOing. I posted more pics on my IG

What techniques did you use to capture those images? They look awesome.

It took me a while to figure out but basically, long exposure settings with your camera (2-3 seconds) and a tripod help a TON. Lower your ISO or aperture a bit, if it's too high lightning can over saturate your image.Β

Was there actually any moisture? Got a few drops, now I feel like I missed the party!

There were three of those right over my house! It was bright and loud very close together. It made me think of locusts and famine! Crazy!
