Lightning #1

ISO - 200    F/8    Exp. 1.3 sec    18mm

I've always been fascinated with lightning [from a safe distance].  I've never owned a camera that could capture the speed of lightning....until now.  This is my first try at shooting it, and surprisingly I caught a few good bolts - the best of which is shown above.  This will not be the last time I post a lightning shot.

ISO - 400    F/11    Exp. 1/500    200mm

Work took me to good 'ole Burley, ID.  I was fortunate to be staying in a hotel with a farm behind it. (To be fair, though....there's a farm behind every building in Burley.)  This was my first trip using my new Nikon D3300 and I really like this camera.  It took some time getting used to, but I was able to capture a few good ones.
