Ride the lightning

On a recent trip to the Highveld I was caught in a lightning storm.

The inland parts of South Africa is known for the thunder and lightning that goes with rain storms.

I took this photo between 2 small towns in the North West Province Stilfontein and Potchefstroom.

This was the last BIG lightning strike before the heavens opened up and the rain came down hard.



Equipment:

Nikon D40

Lens 18-55mm F/3.5-5.6G

34mm at F/5.6

55sec exposure

ISO 400

Remote control shutter release



No tri-pod, I had a pile of clothing on the roof of the car!

More food inspired by Francis the host of Cooking with Dog.
We started boiling our vegetables in stock, Dashi Stock and other broths.
Also we managed to get Chinese Spinach; it works brilliantly in our Asian dishes!
