I love storms. I love the lightning, the thunder, the crazy rain . When we planned our recent trip to Queensland I kept everything crossed that we would get at least one good tropical storm and boy did mother nature deliver. unfortunately I didn’t have my tripod with me so had to make do with a table and some books but look what I got!
There were 22,000 lightning strikes in SE Qld that night and I am happy that I got to capture a few of them.
Since returning to Melbourne we have had two big storms. One was pretty but not great for photographing lightning. The clouds were pretty amazing though.
and then on Sunday night, out of no where, we were hit by a short but very aggressive storm. The lightning was just huge, even I retreated inside for a few moments as it passed overhead. In the space of 15 minutes I captured this….
My focus was out a little but you get the idea. If only it lasted longer, was just so amazing. I really enjoy the challenge of trying to capture mother natures light show. It makes a nice change from everyday photography. Lets hope she gives me many more opportunities this summer.

Wow! Your pictures are amazing! Do you go storm chasing to capture pictures of storms?
The first lot of pictures were taken from the balcony of the unit we stayed at on holidays and the 2nd lot were taken from my driveway. Just lucky to get a few good storms in the past couple of weeks.
thanks for looking
