2ND LIGHTING SHOT

Forth Worth, TX

This was the second shot I got last night of the lightning. I was going to crop it some but decided that I would leave it the way it was. This one and the next shot were the only ones I managed to capture. I'll be putting up some more of the actual storm moving in from different vantage points. Was a truly amazing sight.

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi
1/2500s f/2.8 at 17.0mm iso200 full exif

When I meet you remind me to tell you the story of how I have been struck by lightning twice! And I didn't have a camera. This is a great shot.

Hi Cindi,
Whoa, that's a perfect shot if I ever saw one! Magnificent!! There are no storms like those in Texas and nobody could have captured it better. \/
