Nature shows its fury in the most spectacular way possible by sending down millions of jolts of electricity to the ground. The more dangerous it is, the more spectacular it looks. It has always been a pleasure to watch the lightning strikes on a rainy night. Holding a camera in the hand, waiting for the next strike to hit the sky. Nature is the best source of inspiration for any artist. Even though capturing lightning in photos is a lot of fun, it can be quite challenging and even dangerous if you do not use a little forethought and planning. You should be holding the camera at the right moment with hell a lot of patience. I hope to inspire you to go out there and start capturing the awesome moments through this article.
