i really like that one dmg!!

this morning i rolled out of bed at 5:30 with the intention of making it to work by 7:00. didn't happen. there was a thunder cell to my east moving north and was just oozing with lightning. thanks to flex hours at work i was able to put that off and grab the nikon.

y'all are right, night shots are way easier. i still need lots of practice but this isn't too bad for my first attempt.

in these shots you see here, the first one was me testing out the ISO at 60. a little too much overexposure imo. i did change it to 125 which i thought would be fine but i was trying a different method and it turned out horrible. the nikon D-3100 has a video mode where you can take snapshots from a single frame and i thought i'd try it out. not one of them came out. way out of focus. must work on that. could be a handy feature.

anyway, here are the three shots i snapped at ISO60.
