Nice job. Care to share you technique?

T3i with 18-55 kit lens, 13 seconds at f13.
I pointed it, set the exposure at 13 seconds, put the button on the remote down and let it take pictures.

I came in here thinking... OOOH! I'll share.
Then after seeing these awesome shots I think I'll just keep my lil ol' lightning shot in a hiding spot.


Gear: Yes.

This year I haven't ran into too many great lightning shows on chases except for this one. It shows a ragged mesocyclone on the left coming at us and some incredible lightning around the base. We were laying on our bellies in the road clicking our remotes, haha. We had to reposition a couple minutes after this since the lightning was getting so intense.

I like the idea of a running lightning thread, let's keep this going.
