I can't believe I have not updated this for so long. Such a lazy git !
This past week has seen some amazing electrical storms in my local area. On Wednesday night I watched one of the most amazing displays I have ever seen. Constant lightning all around me, but the strange thing it was almost totally silent and dry. Yet about 2 miles away there was loads of damage caused by hailstones about 2 inches across.
I actually was so enthralled by the display that I did not even think for the most part about getting the camera out. But when I did I at least caught one shot with a couple of bolts in it, not much but it was my first attempt.
Was out and about yesterday after looking at a weather forcast of more thunder storms and was able to get a nice shot of he sky about 30 minutes before the storm hit. At that point I was watching the lightning from the dry safety of the pub!
If we are going to get more of these storms, it might be worth while investing in one of the lightning triggers that are availble.
So if anyone has any recomendations or links to reviews of these, please let me know.
Well thanks for dropping by.
Graham
