Location
This photo was taken in my backyard, overlooking the farm we live on. This picture is looking east, which is where I usually find the most lightning!Time
I captured this right after sunrise. Early morning storms are common here in Oklahoma, and always have beautiful colors!Lighting
Not much lighting was needed here, the lightning put off enough! I chose not to edit this photo, to feel as if you're there when you're looking at it. Just you and the lightning.Equipment
I almost always use the camera on my cell phone! It takes fantastic pictures, and it's so much easier to lug around when you've already got 3 kids (one special needs) in tow!Inspiration
I love storms; lightning, especially. Every bolt is different, but all are equally beautiful.Editing
I did not. Just as it is with women and makeup, I feel like being natural is more beautiful.In my camera bag
In all honesty, my charger and my cell phone are all I need. Well, that and the 30 pound diaper bag. So, small is good.Feedback
I always find the best lightning when I record video of the storm. With my Samsung phone, I have the ability to go frame by frame, therefore singling out each lightning strike, from cloud to ground or vice versa.
