    This looks as thought the lightning is tracing the edge of a cloud – stunning. The simplicity would make it easy to use in an ad – might be a great stock seller if you’re into that.

  • Daniel J. McCa... replied

    Actually, I have a number of lightning shots as stock, this is not one, but I think you’re probably right : ) Thanks Jan!

    Fantastic capture! Does your family act like you’ve lost your mind when you go out to photograph lightening? With a metal tripod—a.k.a. a lightening rod?

  • Daniel J. McCa... replied

    LOL… It’s all semantics, I call it bravery – my wife calls me an idiot : )
    I have been very lucky (and I know it) , as I’ve stood out in the middle of some violent storms to try & get a shot. But, I could get hit be a bus driving to work, so I figure when it’s your time it’s your time, hopefully I can get some more before my time is up! As always, Thanks very much, Tim!
