Some pics from the storm here yesterday...

Left work early and had the camera in the car and it was still dark and lightning like crazy so I thought I would take my first stab at taking pics of lightning...

My Jealous.

I'd like to try a storm like that in HDR. I haven't seen any examples of someone who has.

Great shots

Were you using the bulb setting or machine gunning in the next probable direction?

i've seen some lightning HDR photos online, sadly not a fan. Combined with HDR (which most people over do it and it looks fake and ridiculous) and some lightning the photo just looks so fake.

Somewhat has to do with the lighting conditions of when you can actually photograph lightning, but yeah, just not my cup of tea i guess, but most HDR isn't either.
