Storm Over Hartbeespoortdam Photo

Photographer’s Note

This photo was taken overlooking the Harbeespoortdam by Ron Cooper my cousin. It is such a remarkable shot showing the power of an electric storm so typical in the summers in Southern Africa

WOW!!! Great shot, great timing. Either your cousin walks around with a permanent camera in his pocket or he was just lucky.

I really like the way the bolts are hitting the hill. Very dramatic.
Very well done!

Hi Anthony, it is a good shot, with great exposure throughout, even with the increase in light caused by the lightning. Some details would be nice, i.e. set up for this shot, time, aperture etc.etc.

Thanks, John

beautiful, I have taken some photos of lightning and I must admit its a trial and error thing. a tripod and cable release is a must. 10 out of 10
