Wonderful colours in the sky.

[Helen Jane]

great drama presented in a picture book way.

[Domenico Dodaro]

It's interesting how the motion blur adds drama to the scene

[Jane Pittenger]

Feels so threatening

[Marnie]

Oh wow, you've really captured the feeling of electricity in the air.

[Jennifer D. Morrison]

I keep trying to catch one of ours but no luck. Yours is gorgeous. Love the purple tones

[Caterina]

@morrij10 thank you. You just should mount the camera on the tripod and leave it open for 30 seconds. If you are in luck you should catch at least one. I think I caught at least four or five because the sky kept turning purple, one lightning after the other. I guess that’s what creates the motion blur that @domenicododaro mentions

[Domenico Dodaro]

@caterina I forgot to specify: in the grass! Maybe some wind?

[Caterina]

@domenicododaro or out of focus?

[Domenico Dodaro]

@caterina don’t know... from my computer view there seems to be some swaying in the foreground. What aperture did you use?

[Caterina]

F8 shutter speed 1/100 55mm

[Domenico Dodaro]

I had understood you kept the shutter open for 30”. Then it’s certainly the depth of field. Whatever it is, though, I like it!

[Jennifer D. Morrison]

@caterina - Thanks for the tip!

[Rob Z]

Lightning and action and colour - Fav for sure for me.
