Bradenton Single Lightning Strike

[Sgt_Hovanec]

Taken in Bradenton, FL facing North toward Ellenton mall area on the south side of the Braden River. I like how this strike appears menacing and authoritative. 105mm, f/10, 20sec at ISO 100 from 70-200mm f/2.8L IS on Xt. I'm also posting a %100 crop to show the weird lighting that was coming off of the strike on the main branch.

Hey, someone else from Bradenton! Nice shots, did you use some type of lightning trigger, or just keep clicking away?

Just one picture after another. I do need to use a trigger but I may actually give in next summer and try one out for the daylight storms only.

That's a great shot.
