With a severe (but short-lived) thunderstorm rolling through the area, I made preparations for lightning pictures on the front porch as usual.
It was not so good shooting because of low clouds, but there was lots of lightning in them. Also, I did not do a very good job of prefocusing the camera.. this was about as good as I got...
But then I was going the the photos and noticed the look of an accidental shutter trip as I was picking up the tripod to go outside... the Christmas tree in all its trippy glory.
Sort of a magical weirdness to it.
The storm blew through in a hurry, so I was still plenty awake to play with more tree pics. And I had the tripod setup. Sooo..... How about the angel on top, lit by a handheld flash during a long exposure, then spin the camera around while the shutter is still open?
This (and the pic at the top) were my favorites. Not perfect, but a fun exercise anyway.
Have a great Thursday.
