Description One of the very few lightning photos I managed to get during a thunderstorm while I was on vacation. I would probably take more photos and maybe try to get better composition but my batteries died so I could only take 3 successful photos with lightnings on them.

This one was by far the best lighting of the 3 even though it is not perfectly composed. But then, you can never know where the lightning will struck.

Taken @ Ugljan, Croatia

Ne koristim ništa osim onoga što imam na fotiću. A imam tzv. kreativni kompakt - canon s5 is. Dakle, ništa fensi, nikakvi dodatni objektivi.

Hvala ti za ove, evo jedna llama u znak zahvalnosti.

dobri su ti kompakti... dosta toga u sebi imaju... solidan zoom, infinity pretpostavljam.... dok meni na mojem 18-55 fali to... uglavnom fotka je odlična, iz dobre pozicije vrebaš munje hvala ti

More or less same for me. I was at the right place at the right time with this one. The storm was far enough for me to be safe (and dry) outside, and the lightnings were quite frequent, so all I had to do was set the shutter speed and hope it flashes while the camera is 'open for business'.

Thank you for the

Indeed, good timing, but I couldn't predict where the lightning would struck so it's a bit on the edge...

Thank you for ing
