Here are a few of the shots I took last week of the lightning storm in Hood River. I was excited to go out and shoot this because lightning storms are pretty rare up here, they usually only happen a couple times a year. I started shooting at around 3AM from our house, but the storm quickly moved east and went behind the hills, so I knew the
perfect place to drive to and get a good view. Turned out it was the perfect place, and I shot up there until 6:30 in the morning, it was fun.
A little info on what your seeing in the photos- the water is the mighty
Columbia River, the hills on the right are Oregon and hills on the left are Washington. The small amount of city lights you see on the right are a really cool little town called
Mosier, population 410! And lastly the highway lights on the Oregon side is
Interstate 84.

ReplyDeleteThose are incredible - we have tons of lightning storms out here but being a non-photo person I always end up with pictures of dark sky. (No lightning!)
