📷 How I shoot lightnings?! 📷

[fibra59]

Hello steemit crew!
In Dalmatia lightnings are very rare so it is big deal to catch them.
Today I will show you how I took pictures of lightning.
First of all I needed to pick camera. When my brother is at home that is really hard decision.

That day brother was needed his cameras so I took my Canon 550D with kit lens 18-55mm.

Next thing I needed was tripod.I brought my Vanguard Espod 233AP.

With lightning of course coming rainstorm so I drove car on the top of the nearest hill and found way to fix camera in car so I did't have to leave the car.

After that I set up 30" exposure time with f/5, ISO 100 and started to trying and trying to catch perfect shot.
Let's see some attempts:

And finally I got satisfying picture:

After 30 min of trying battery drained and I was happy with that one catch so it was right time to go home.

Thank you for your attention!
