Chasing Lightning

[chuckmoser]

Hello all. One of my hobbies has always been chasing storms, so when I bought my Digital Rebel SLR earlier this summer, I couldn't wait to see if could photograph lightning. I spent a sleepless night chasing a particularly violent light show all over Central Oregon.

These aren't exactly portfolio pieces, just interesting I thought. They were taken with a 20 second exposure.

Let me know what you think-
Thanks, Chuck

P.S.: As a side story, "lightning3.jpg" happened to catch a lightning bolt that shocked (didn't injure) a five-year-old child that was taking a bath when this bolt hit the neighbor's house, thus sending the charge through the water pipes.
