Hi Richard,

I came here via dpreview, from the thunder and lightning thread. Your pictures are great
but I must have missed something: what camera are you using, what f-stop, etc. I had a
d30 for a few weeks and I tried shooting lightning with some success, using the bulb
setting at f6.7 (forget the lens, I think it was 35-135mm, used 35 for the pix). Anyway,
I don't have a tripod so I just pointed to an 'active' area of the sky, held the shutter
open until a flash occurred and released the shutter. (ISO 100). Considering the camera
shake it worked surprisingly well, I actually got a few decent shots. BTW, I'm between
ISP's so I can only lurk in the dpr chat; I hope to register sometime this week.
