was a little lackluster. But Mother Nature blessed me with some payback this afternoon for the long wait last night with not much color...

Thanks, all.

The sunset last night was just disappointing. We're usually blessed with pretty nice sunsets, but lately between the dust and the haze (humidity is brutal right now) haven't been near as "photogenic" as they usually are.

The lightning should be pretty good as a download. I didn't crop it because there's a little strak way over to the left side. It surprised me how much detail there is when you pixel peep it

Raybo,

Your lighting image is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Handheld? Tripod?

Thanks

Tripod using a Pluto trigger. First time using it. Missed probably 6-8 other strikes because I was trying to figure things out.

We're just coming into "high season" for lightning here, so hoping to get more. Especially at night.

I hear ya. Usually, when the title is "Sunset", I expect to be "seeing Red." That's what makes your image so cool to me. Looks like somebody washed all the color outta your Canon.

I think you got the most out of the sunset but the lightning shot is incredible! Thanks.
