Day 227: Lightning

Lightning

To get lightning shots, I set the camera (on tripod) on a 15 second exposure and click and hope that at some point when the shutter is open, there is lightning. For this one, I tweaked the contrast and brightness to make it look more like what we saw, since long exposures let in a lot more light. Too bad we didn’t get any rain here, though!
