Lightning Pictures

Lightning pictures dazzle the eyes and amaze the mind. Seeing naked electricity arc across the sky is nature at work.

When that bolt of lightning travels through the clouds and strikes the earth, the rumble of booming thunder is not far behind.

Getting photos of lightning seems like it would be a challenge but capturing them at night as actually easier than it sounds.

Just get the camera in position, set the shutter to a slower speed like a few seconds and if you’re timing is right, a beautiful picture of lightning is sure to come of it.

Lightning is a dangerous subject to photograph so taking the necessary precautions not to get struck truly might mean life and death.
