Today while being stuck in traffic coming back home from work, I noticed dark clouds roll in from the north, it was a windy day but it got dark unusually quickly.
Just before getting home at 5:40pm, the clouds got low and heavy and lighting show started. I stopped at the park and took my camera out not knowing what settings I should be on (never took lighting photos before), I didn't have my tripod so a long exposure was out of the question, but then the question reminded, what shutter and aperture settings? I set it on manual with gut feeling settings.
The only problem I had was storage.... I only had space for 50 more images, wanting to capture as much as possible I set my camera on continuous high shoot mode and blasted away, soon enough I ran out of space so I had to remove all the dud images manually, missing out on the lighting.
Long story short, I had 60 or so images in total, but only 7 are usable!
