Champaign Thunderstorm

These lightning shots are awesome. How do you go about trying to capture them? I've always wanted to try.

Thanks Brent.

First off, please respect lightning and be safe. I took this photo inside a parking garage, and the previous photo "Lightning" I was inside my car.

For the camera, helps to have a lot of space on your memory card as I end up taking many shots.

For daytime lightning I try to find a spot in the storm that is producing a lot of cloud to ground strikes, aim, and fire away.

At night I use a tripod and set the exposure to 10 seconds or more.

Lot of storms this time of year, good luck.

you're the lightning whisperer.
