Stormy Christmas day by

I have tried very hard for a storm shot hat I could be happy with. I have sat for hours on exposed ridgelines only to have the storm pass by with no good shots to show for it .one night the rain came in first and i had to watch the lightning from in side my car then on my way home the road was blocked by fallen trees .But look what I got for Christmas

    My flight home was cancelled thanks to this! But the positive is that this is a beautiful picture, well done!

  • Sorry that’s my fault I was hoping for a storm for Christmas. But my heart goes out to anyone that was adversely affected by it

    Great shot ! did you use a filter ?

  • Hi mate i only used a Polaroid filter in this shot and that is only to give a longer exposure and more chance to get a lighting bolt.
