Default A couple photos to share

I know it's not hunting related but still the outdoors. Lightning photos have been a hobby of mine for several years. Nothing too great but it was the first storm of the year I had an opportunity to photograph.

Great shots.

How do you get shots of lightning? Do you just set up a timer and let it run or is there a more intricate way of doing it?

If you go to the link that was posted a few before you I also posted these photos there. An AO member asked me the same question and I answered it there if you want to check it out. I also posted a few more lightning photos at that link.
