incredible one the best ligtning photos that i saw

Jean-Michel Raggioli, on May 1, 2007, said:

Thanks for your comments.

Some infos: this thunderstorm was shot the 10/16/2006 from a 400m hill. Almost all the south coast of Martinique is visible here, from Sainte-Anne in the background to Le Diamant at the right. The Diamond Rock is out of the view at the left.

Cette photo a été prise le 16/10/2006 depuis une colline de 400m de haut (le Morne Pavillon) qui domine tout le sud de la Martinique. On voit les lumières de Sainte-Anne au fond, celles de Sainte-Luce au centre et celles des quartiers péripheriques du Diamant à droite. Le Rocher du Diamant est hors-cadre sur la droite.

I'm looking at it for more than an hour and I still can't believe it. It's like a dream. How in the world did you get this on camera? Please tell me.

Jean-Michel Raggioli, on May 1, 2007, said:

@ mcw: thank you !

The camera was on a tripod and I took this photo with a long exposure: 30 seconds.

Here are the EXIF for those who want to know a little more: Sony DSLR-A100 + 18-70mm @ 18mm ; 30 s ; f/3.5 ; 100 iso

joseph_hunt, on June 25, 2007, said:

Great shot!! I love the clouds. i've taken one decent lightning shot. Do you chase storms or do they come to you?

Jean-Michel Raggioli, on June 25, 2007, said:

Thanks Joseph. Living on a small island (Martinique), most of the time the storms are coming to me. If I lived in a bigger place where I could chase storms I would do it for sure !

ChipStephan, on June 25, 2007, said:

So far, this one and joseph_hunt's "one decent" shot are for me the best of show in the lightning category. Fantastic shot, Jean-Michel.

Thanks to all for your kind comments :)

@ Olga : Thank you. Thunderstorms are not rare here but this one was exceptionnaly photogenic ! Just at the good distance of the coastline, the lightning was outside of the cloud so it is totally visible, and it was not raining over the hill where I was shooting, then it allowed me to take the time to put a tripod and shot several lightnings...and this one is the best of the serie.

Greetings from Martinique.
