I found a few old images on a site I'd forgotten about (Imgur) and just found through another old image.
The first image my son captured EXACTLY the same strike (IDENTICAL) with his mobile phone. The phone had a before feature I still don't comprehend but his image is less zoomed in. The one shown here is my capture, all done with a Nikon D80 and no idea what lens.
Third shot (double rainbow and lightning) I eventually threw the old tent frame out, I wish I could remove it from the foreground but I have absolutely no idea how to, my editing skills in PS and Lightroom are very limited.
There's a thought, crop, I'm such an IDIOT!
Sorry, third image is now fourth image and old rotten tent frame has been cropped out. I stuffed the aspect ratio but I don't care.
I have an obsession with lightning but only when there's no rain. Some people say my obsession will be my undoing, just because the first time I ever photographed it with my 35mm Nikon I was sitting on the ridge capping on a tin roof in the middle of a huge electrical storm in Young, wearing only shorts, no shirt, no footwear.
Sadly not enough decent electrical storms and when we do get them I have this mass of electrical cables out front of my house which show up as the most unsightly mess in my images.
