The Morning After

 

A long exposure at East Point yesterday morning with the remnants of an overnight storm.  This was before the sun had risen and the scene was just getting a bit of reflected light from the softly glowing sky.

First lightning photo of the season

Noonamah Bolt

I went for a drive tonight and got this distant bolt from Noonamah.  The shot is heavily cropped and taken with a 120mm lens.  I set the camera to manual for a 30 second exposure at F5 and 100 ISO to keep the noise down.  The grass in the foreground is lit up by the carpark lights near me which I think adds a nice bit of background.
