We came back from the hospital late last night and were surrounded by storms on the way home. I passed the time by monkeying with the camera to see if I could catch a pic. Ended up with 503 pictures including the ones I took of the baby and family at the hospital and got 3 pics with an actual lightning bolt in it. This one is the best of the three.

Oh, and I would just wait until I saw saw flashes and mashed the button hoping to catch it. I couldn't set the long exposure time since I was in the truck.
Thanks for comments. The learning continues.....Last edited by Justin; 05-28-2009, 02:34 PM.
