This is an awesome capture

While I was in Philadelphia this past week, I was watching my brother row his race with the eight when one hell of a storm came up. I wished then, as the rain came down in torrents and the wind blew the river in mists all over its surface, that I had a lightning trap to capture the storm over their heads. It would have been incredible, with the shell half-swamped on the river and lightning overhead. And here you submit this, almost as if to make fun of me. I suppose a 25-second exposure would have helped, as you seem to have used. Darn that camera. I'll remember that next time, though.

How many attempts did this take, and do you have more than one successful lightning shot from that?

o.0 Mmkay, this might seem random if I'm wrong... but does tfprince mean 'the frog prince'? and if so... are you known as such in a chatroom called palace?

I ask this, because the frong prince guy from palace took a lightning shot at some point too... and it looked something like this [I can't remember, it might be completely different than this]

tfprince In reply to obliteratexme [2005-07-06 19:01:50 +0000 UTC]

hehe - no

tfprince means "the fresh prince" and i never chat in chatrooms... so this must be a complete different person...

I am so jealous right now...... i want a camera that i can take pictures of lighting with... my A90 has long exposures, but i have to keep ahead of the lighting and try to figure out a pattern... which i cant.... i need a BETTER camera for it.... i am incredibly jealous, great photo by the way *smile*

Sehr schön, auch die Färbung vom Himmel find ich super! Ist sicher schwierig, einen Blitz so zu erwischen, wieviel Fotos hast da gemacht?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

tfprince In reply to zero- [2005-07-02 21:30:25 +0000 UTC]

dankeschön - die Färbung des Himmels habe ich übrigends durch einen "falschen" Weißabgleich hinbekommen...

gebraucht habe ich so ca. 20-30 photos mit jeweils 20-30sec Belichtungszeit - war also ne gute weile dran, aber da es ja eh bei mir im Zimmer war, war's nicht sooo langweilig

sassmuffin [2005-07-02 15:53:19 +0000 UTC]

that's a beauty.......lovely
im the worst at catching lightning shots

you should put in the description for people to full-view...definitely makes it a hundred times better.

tfprince In reply to sassmuffin [2005-07-02 21:28:18 +0000 UTC]

fullview is always a MUST if you're interested in someones art... i don't like this "ohhh hey, you should fullview this... blablabla..."

sassmuffin In reply to tfprince [2005-07-02 23:12:24 +0000 UTC]

good point...makes enough sense....but sometimes i look at something whilst browsing that seems interesting and then its not or i just dont like it so i dont fullview and i probably miss out because im a jerk like that but OH WELL.

Wow, muss verdammt schwierig sein nen Blitz zu fotografieren ...
Da brauch man bestimmt derbe Reflexe

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

tfprince In reply to 2mbst1 [2005-07-02 21:26:13 +0000 UTC]

Das Blitzknippsen hat leider rein garnix mit Reflexen zu tun, wenn man den Blitz sieht, dann isses eh immer schon zu spät...
Trick ist, eine lange Belichtungszeit zu nehmen und dann zu hoffen das in dieser Zeit (bei mir 25sec) ein Blitz kommt... ansonsten ist halt wieder ein Bild umsonst gemacht...

das Blitzknippsen ist ja leider so ne ziemliche Glückssache... von dem her bin ich mir sicher, wenn du einen gut erwischt, sieht's 100x besser aus als das hier
