Night K7 + 10-17mm Fisheye + Lightning

K7 + 10-17mm Fisheye + Lightning · 06:43 AM

First ever attempts at capturing lighting.

I corrected the colour problem by altering the profile to sRGB in photoshop then re-uploading.

Those funny bits on the right hand side are from rain drops on the lense.

It's just hit Camberwell. No bright lights, just noise and wet stuff.

[Edit] PS. Great photos. I really enjoyed them.

A classic

It says something about the recuperative powers of youth that there were only 7 hrs and 1 minute between the posts.

Well done, Chris.

Big G · 11-01-2009, 02:49 PM

Bravo! These are brilliant, I'd love to be able to capture lightning like this, but I just don't get lightning like that in Scotland

MattC · 11-01-2009, 04:05 PM

Fantastic shots - the second one is the standout - well done!

vievetrick · 11-01-2009, 08:25 PM

Amazing work Chris!!!! I love night shots and lightning and a huge bonus.
