lightning storm

Had a big electrical storm run through here tonight. It started around 8pm on Saturday and it's still going on here at 12:30am Sunday. I took this picture around 9:30pm, I think. Just a few minutes before I got a great picture but I'm going to post that one over on my main blog page. I like the moodiness of this one tho. The one lighning strike was just sufficient to partially light the picture frame.

Wow that looks really awesome. How do you get such good dark pictures??

Thanks, Big O. I was taking these with a 8 second exposure. The frame was almost completely dark if no lightning occured, which typically was the case, but would be lit up when lightning did occur in the frame. Just a matter of doing it often enough to "get lucky".

That's a gorgeous picture! You won't hear too many serious comments out of me, but that is a nice one!
