Natural Fireworks Today

eworks because of the dry grass and the fear of fires

 

However.. I was able to be a bit preemptive on some popup storms tonight and get some of this.. I waited for at least an hour on top a highway overpass taking 1-30second shots hoping to get some lightening.

Nice, I was trying to get lightning from my back deck. But the lightning wasnt coming through the clouds, and I was getting rained on. So I said screw it. I really wanted to try firework shots, but we didnt end up going to see them this year.

:yuno: tripod?!?

 

Still look cool tho!! I didn't have mine with me or else I was gonna try. I wish there was an app where you could manually set the shutter, ISO, and f stop on my iPhone!

I dont think it was the overpass.. i was standing before the road switches to bridge. I found out that my remote release for my D90 doesnt work with my D700, so i have to get anohter one.

 

I was on bulb mode and using only finger on the trigger. the shake is probably more my fault than the road.
