Post your weather pictures here

This topic is for members' photographs of weather and weather related scenes. Please post only your own or your family's pictures. Also, please post the time, location and description along with the picture for educational purposes.

If you have a picture that you need help resizing, cleaning up or fixing, you can post them in the »Digital Imaging forum and get help.

If there are any discussions, please don't post replies to this topic, but instead create a separate topic on the picture so we can keep this one uncluttered, with "pictures only".

I hope this will be enjoyable and educational for all - Have fun!

The society which scorns excellence in plumbing as a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy: neither its pipes or its theories will hold water.

A lucky post sunset shot from a few nights ago. (An instantainious acting SLR helps... Pentax K10D) Yet still only one of about 10 tries.

PS looks like that just missed the Navy SEALS over there on Flemming Key... maybe a radio tower of theirs... of course could have been well the other side to in open water... hard to tell.

All taken in Vero Beach, Florida. The last three are from a wild storm that crawled slowly past to the south west, then filled back and pounded us later on. The cloud colors were all over the map, and the lightning shot, such as it is, was blind luck.

Great pictures! The lightning shot taken at 1/30th of a second was fantastic good fortune. Thanks for sharing!

Image stabilization is your friend.

A comical note about that lightning. I pushed the aperture to force a slower shutter speed in hopes of getting a lightning shot, but was shooting in RAW, and my cam will not shoot in Drive mode in RAW format, only jpg. So I was shooting single frames.

Thinking I was missing out on the lightning I switched to jpg, and using drive mode shot over 100 frames while watching lightning bolts drop from the sky within the camera's field of view.

After all that, the first, single RAW shot was the only frame that had a lightning bolt visible in it and I didn't know that until I downloaded the photos later on. It isn't a fantastic lightning shot (there are far better to be found on the Gallery pages here and all over Flickr, for example) but it's what I got that day.

Pure, blind luck.

From what I have been told by a gentlemen that does a lot of weather photography. He closes down his aperture a lot then uses an extremely long exposure time.

The link below shows the results.

He says he has a lightening trigger as well, but doesn't get as good a result with it.

Great photos!

I did close down the aperture as much as I could, but it was the middle of the day and I was standing in bright sunlight shooting into the storm, so getting truly long exposures wouldn't have been possible without a filter of some sort. That's why I gave up the single shots and tried to capture lightning with the drive mode turned on, figuring that with all the lightning my eyes were seeing, a hundred exposures ought to catch *something*.

They didn't.

I haven't completely picked this guys brain yet so there may be more to it.

I really never have tried to capture lightening yet, but well, it does travel at the speed of light.
