james7 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Three great photos codfisho! Well done mate! I like them all. If you like taking lightning shots, I can give you a good tip, DON'T hold a 12 foot beach rod in the air during a thunderstorm, otherwise you might end up with an extreme close-up! I nearly got caught beach fishing at Cronulla a few years ago when a wild storm rolled in. I've never run so fast in my life! Beach rods and lightning don't mix.

lamiglass Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 Glad to see you guys liked the pics , and Pete i have had a close encounter with lightning before , on the beach , i near shat so i too did the bolt and left the rod there in the sand spike until the storm cleared. Hey there Hooked4life, i didn't use any filters . But it was taken with a Canon S1is , and the lightning pics as well. Its not an SLR but if you experiment a bit you can take some cool shots. I take the film SLR with me as well and use the digital to get the right settings ( after some mucking around ) and then put the same settings to my SLR and take a nice pic. Hey Mitch, The Snow was thick as bricks here on Thursday mate, i went to Bathurst for a drive and on the way back we got hammered by Snow. We only just got home and they shut the Highway some 10 mins after , bloody close call cause the road was still shut untill the following morning, The papers delivered from Sydney had to sent Via Mudgee to Orange. A truck passed me and i sat up his ass , 20 k's to travell and we were doing 30-40 kmh. post your pics i'll have a look, Cheers guy's from Gav.
