Thunderstorm

Thunderstorm - Violent thunderstorms with lightning storms have occurred in recent days. I photographed these lightning bolts from my window with interval timer photos, Nikon D850, Nikon 35-80mm at 40mm, f / 7.1, 10 sec, ISO 100, three photo fusion. Thanks for your comments

Interesting technique if I understood your introduction, Giangiorgio! The result looks stunning! Complimenti! Ciao! PDE

A strong event and an excellent result, Giangiorgio! A wonderful merge of three pictures! Bravo, Maestro! Sincerely, Tatiana

Outstanding capture Giangiorgio! You have a very good spot to do this from. The three housing towers look like lightning rods. Warmest regards, Todd

Giangiorgio, I knew before reading any previous comments 9including yours) that you had used a timer. The outcome is nothing short of spectacular! I wonder why the right-hand building didn't attract as many bolts as the other two. Regardless, your camera settings also made a huge difference, especially the use of a lens length of 40mm. Clearly the aperture and shutter settings accounted for the DOF and some sharp detail along the top edge. - - My best always, Michael - - - Ciao!

Michael , glad you enjoyed this picture and adding it to your favorites, ciao Giangiorgio

Michael, thank you for your thoughtful comment and appreciation of my photo Apparently the lightning strikes the buildings in front of me, but luckily they were a little further back and are covered by the buildings giving the illusion of hitting them , ciao Giangiorgio

I am thrown aback by the beauty, the power, the intensity, the depth, magnificence of capturing one of Nature's tantrums. I am at a loss of words for this one-of-a-kind photograph, which IMHO should be in one of the TOP galleries in the world. I have never seen something so compelling and well arranged. My sincere admiration and congratulations. A must among my top favorites. DG

 

P.S. I cannot stop looking at the image, and going back to it, as if it were unreal. One of the very delicate, exquisite details is the flash of lightning disappearing and appearing again, shaded by a cloud. Hmmmmm.....pure delight and exquisitness.
