Cathedral Lights
Lens: Sigma EX DG 24-60mm f/2.8 Camera: K20D Photo Location: Sedona, AZ ISO: 100 Shutter Speed: >6s Aperture: F6.7

The biggest Monsoon of the year in Sedona produced this incredible light show that lasted all night long. It happened just after the sun went down, and I was lucky enough to find a sheltered (enough) area to take this shot. 15s exposure, shot RAW. My photographer friend was shooting with a Canon 50D, but she had to take her shots from inside the car.. Weathersealing ftw!

Thanks so much, Cliff! It was wet work, but totally worth it in the end.

That's quite something, I'd be very happy with that shot if it were mine.

Thanks Tom, with my tripod up and lightning all around me I felt like a lightning rod, but I'm still here!
