Lightning photos

in #photography7 years ago

Hello people. Few nights ago I was taking some photos of thunderstorm lightnings and I wanted to share with you some of them. Capturing perfect lightning can sometimes be difficult, you have to time your camera when to capture it. I've found perfect exposure for capturing lightnings. I will share my recipe with you.

For shutter speed you will need at least 15s so you can have much more time for capturing multiple lightnings in one photo. For aperture, you can chose from f5.6 to f11 or even lower. In that way you will get tack sharp photos of lightnings. And for the ISO, I'm always using lowest, so ISO 100 is good.

You can't expect every time perfect photo, sometimes you will get "farts" like this one. It's nothing special. :D
