I like the blue tint. It's really anguishing. It feels like the end of the world.

Very impressive. I've never tried to take pictures of lightning - how is it done? Do you have the shutter open on B setting, have you just got fantastic reflexes? Smile

Exif Sub IFD

* Exposure Time (1 / Shutter Speed) = 30/1 second = 30.00000 second
* Exposure Program = manual control (1)

30 second exposures Wink

Hi, Peter!
I guess nobody can have so fast reflexes!
When I shoot thunderstorms, I use low ISO, a pretty closed aperture and 30s exposure:

I'm impressed! So it's like going fishing really - you point the camera where you think there will be a lightning flash, open the shutter for 30s and just hope it happens in the right place?

Yep its fishing Smile. Thanks for your comments guys. It will be easy for you to have a really wide lens mounted so the hunting will be easier Smile
