First attempt at lightning photography

All,

Below is a link to my first lightning photograph:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/davidjo.../lightning.jpg

Camera Olympus Om-2n in manual mode, 50mm lens, Kodak Gold Ultra 200 film,
@ F5.6 for 22 Seconds.
Location was Halkidiki in Greece.

Picture was cropped and levels adjusted in Photoshop.

I was quite pleased although it did take me the best part of two rolls of
film !

Regards,
Dave

Very nice picture Dave!

I think we should start a club for first lightning pictures...

Mine was cheaper though - I got it on the 17th exposure.
