Lightning Over Downtown New Braunfels, Texas

Lightning Downtown New Braunfels

This post is dedicated to all my fellow Texas brothers who are getting soaked by these never ending monsoons that have been drenching us in rain for the last month. Seems like its been raining for 3 months straight.

Despite the wet weather which I am usually a fan of, its made some interesting photo opportunities. This shot was a very lucky one. Its really quite hard to shot lightning in the day. Everything usually comes out overexposed and one big white photo with no detail. This shot was taken with a 1/60 shutter speed and maybe f/8 aperture. Not sure? But I was really thrilled when I opened it up in Photoshop. It wasn't overexposed, and it wasn't blurry. Using the tripod paid off.
