Strong storms here in the NEK of Vermont yesterday evening. Strong winds (lots of downed trees), heavy rain, and crazy lightning.

Tim, is there a specific technique you used to get the full lightning arc in those shots? They look great!

Thanks I was trying lots of different things while I was out there. Luckily is was getting dark so I could run the shutter open for a long time (15-30 seconds). Earlier in the evening, when the sky was still rather light, I set the f stop around f10 to keep from over-exposing the sky. As it got darker I decreased to f4-f6. The lightning bolts are bright enough that they show up well anywhere in that range.
Going wide angle 12-16mm didn't yield very many keepers. The lightning was too far away to make it a significant part of a wide angle image. Had the storm been closer it may have worked out but I would guess that it is pretty rare to be close enough to a storm to get a good shot and not get drenched with rain or actually be in danger of getting struck by the lightning you are trying to photograph.Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.

just finished up 5 days of this. I had never done an overnight raft trip before. at first 5 days/nights sounded like a lot. it went by way too fast and now I'm itching for more.

Nice man! Those are great.
If I were to nit pick them, I'd say they'd be helped by finding a way to get some detail into the foreground. Either with a big flashlight of some kind, or taking a second exposure with a longer shutter speed and stitching them together.
