Lightning

Budapest

So this is my first lightning photography. Not good, but it's a start. The weather was very bad today evening. It was raining cats and dogs. It took me almost 2 hours and around 300 shots to get ONE good shot. I blame some of it to my lack of experience. I never thought about lightning photography at this stage so I had no idea what camera settings to use and how to do it. I just put up my tripod and started playing. Now I read a little on internet about lightning photography :)

This is a good link to start with:
