English: The things I do to get the shot...and I'm not getting paid to do this!
Last night (Sunday) and there was a storm rolling in. Checked the weather radar and saw that my new shooting spot was getting soaked so I went up the road to my old faithful. OK, lets see what happens.... Started of pretty normal, clouds building to the South and North with clear sky above me. Got the camera set up, now we wait for the show. Clouds building, building, building but no lightning. Waiting, waiting, oh there's a drop of rain. Not worried since the sky above me is pretty clear, couple of scattered clouds. Might be a good night after all. That's when it happened. The sky opened up and the rain came down. Started dumping by the bucketful out of a fairly clear sky that quickly turned an ominous shade of black, with some lightning going on. Dumping, dumping, dumping, looks like I'm calling it a night but something told me to hang out for a bit and see what happens. Had the camera on the front seat of the car and decided to see if I could get a shot off through the windshield. This is the result. This was 5 secs at f/14 and ISO 100. If this was the only shot I got I'd be happy because I got at least one. Lucky for me it wasn't the only one... For those who are curious that's my tripod sitting out in the storm, I was able to save the camera but not both! |
