Did a little storm chasing
The lightning, wind and rain chased my dog and I back home and we made it just in time. The lightning was striking every 3-5 seconds. The dog was a little scared, but we made it through with our power on this time so that was nice. Here are a few pics I snapped. I am still trying to take low light pictures on my Nikon D80.

Todd we never saw lightning like that down in Medford.... open your aperture up a little bit and turn your shots on motion, set the iso speed a little higher and put the motion eliminator on... your shots will be much improved but they're good... better than the ones I get on my fuji...

Hi `Todd, Super Pic's
I don't like lightning & it sure can cause alot of damage
to many...We have several deaths a year from strikes : (
Plus it sure can do damage to your electronic's no matter
what surge protector's you have : (
I don't mess with the Power's of Mother Nature
4-Sure
Thanks for sharing/posting
Florida - Lightning Capital of the World
Not Brag'in, it's just the facts : (

We are supposed to have lightning for the next 6 days.
Robyn I have been getting lazy with the auto settings so i will get the manual out and try as you suggested. Medford is the armpit of Oregon. Things are much better on the east side of the mountains. lol
