I took this picture from a building site in the Hexriver Valley in the Western Cape,South Africa. I am a self taught photographer and couldn't believe my luck in capturing a moment like this.Time
It was towards the end of the day when I took this shot. Round about 17:30 pm. The storm was coming up and while my staff was getting things ready to leave,I saw the opportunity.Lighting
Lightning is unique. That's why the pics is so special!Equipment
Believe it or not,this shot was taken by a Blackberry Z10. This shot is what motivated me to start taking photos.Inspiration
I have always loved watching lightning strike,as it is so unique. To get it on a pic is just fantastic!Editing
Nope,just a plain and simple picture. I thought it was perfect as is.In my camera bag
I use a Canon Powershot SX60. Still saving for the rest...Feedback
Everything in nature and life has timing,a rhythm if you like. Lightning,it seems as well. Try to time it and make sure you concentrate on nothing else.
