Afternoon Thunderstorm

British Columbia

One more in a recurring series of weather from our patio.
This storm was forecast and moved in rapidly.

I used a 10-stop ND filter in hopes of catching a lightning
strike. I did but it was very faint so I have increased contrast
in an attempt to bring it out a little. You may have to look
hard to find it. :)

AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II
30 secs, f11, ISO 100, B+W ND110 neutral density filter full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I enjoyed seeing the fine finger of lightning emerging from the massive cloud
I am most impressed that you have a view like this from your patio.

your patio ~BV!
