Title: Lightning Post by: Anton on May 06, 2011, 10:18:26 pm Just had a cracker of a storm in Redditch plenty of CG & IC illuminating the stunning looking sky, managed to capture a few strikes before the rain fell.

Title: Re: Lightning Post by: markt on May 07, 2011, 12:15:24 pm Excellent image Anton! Saw the same storm too. Was down at my local stood outside watching approach till the 50 pence rain started falling and I retreated inside... Got stranded then - lightning was cracking all around, so on health and safety grounds decided the best thing to do was to stay in the pub ;) Terrible :P
Just wish I had camera and tripod with me as would have been some brilliant pics! Hope for somemore today! :) Title: Re: Lightning Post by: Anton on May 07, 2011, 07:37:35 pm Thanks for the comments all lets hope we see some more intense action, Mark have you left the pub yet ???
