This thing just lit up like someone threw a switch. Lasted about 2 minuites.

Thats pretty nice Gus, not as stunning as the lightning shots the other day, but very nice.

I was expecting a bird :D .

Mate lightning is just the best to shoot...you get any there in summer ?


Tried a re-crop of a different shot...a bit brighter. I just kicked out the 256 ram card this morning & this baby is now running a gig ram...wow has it improved PS speed !

LOL Greaps....Knowing what a birder Gus has turned into, I was expecting a rare bird too.....:rofl


Nice Gus :thumb :thumb

I guess that's one advantage you've got by waking up so early everyday. You get to capture some things that many of us don't get to see that often. Nice orange clouds in the BG too :clap

tks mate...just one of the 20 or so on brissys skyline.

I actually dont really like the shot that much at all but its odd in a funny way how it reflected so well.

Good old Brissie, should have guessed (what with actual sunshine and all)....lol. We are getting some sun of late pity it doesnt get much past 10 degrees though.

Great shot. Right place right time. I like the 2nd crop better myself. Hope you didn't fare too much damage in the wild weather up there Gus.
