obi-wan-yj 0 Posted June 13, 2008 After the tornado sirens stopped, the most incredible lightning storm ensued. No wind, no rain, and non-stop cloud-to-cloud bolts. I've posted three photos from this storm in my "Sky" portfolio. All had the contrast stretched to accentuate the lighting on the clouds. Coloration was done solely by modifying the white balance. The red-ish shots use a higher color temp (~8700K) than the blue-ish shot (~5500K). I prefer the blue-ish one, but most people seem to prefer the red-ish color. What do you think? Anything else I can do to improve my shots during the next storm? Getting enough light on the clouds while keeping the shutter slow enough to stop their motion is tough. Link to comment
