Saddleback LO w Lightning Strike NW Headlamp trail .jpg

With a fast approaching storm, I decided to cut this exposure short after a few minutes, and high tail down to retrieve the camera and tripod. Decided to leave the 3 LED headlamp on for this one.
I like the resulting streak with the downstrike in the background.
Exciting evening!

Mike, your lightning images are wonderful. They are very hard to capture well and I have tried over the years in Wyoming and Utah. We don't get many in my part of California.
Your hummer shots are also beautiful. Keep it up, you are an inspiration to all of us.
