We were expecting storms last night, and I thought it would be fun to try some time-lapse again. It has been 10 years since I photographed my last storm. As luck would have it, the storms did not come close enough for me to photograph. So instead, I thought I would just share these 3 from a group that I had taken in 2007

We lived in the country, 20 miles from town on 10 acres. On this particular June evening, I sat the camera on a tripod with a small rain shield over it just in case it started to rain and retreated to the back deck. I could get there quickly and retrieve the camera.

Each picture was taken with an exposure time of 45 seconds. Using a Canon EOS DSLR, 55 mm lens. Aperture 20 if I remember correctly. ISO set at 100.

Michelle nervous naturally, and kept shouting for me to come inside. The thunder was deafening during the shots that were taken. I have to admit I became a little spooked when I ran out there to retrieve the camera.
