The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

My macro lens is a 60mm. You really need a tripod to get the whole shot clear due to the small aperture and slower shutter it usally requires. I have a cokin filter system with a universal ring. It uses square filters.

Nice pic there Afro. Maybe one day I'll have enough time to set up and try to get a good lightning shot. I know that it's harder than it looks.

Thank that. Last night was rather disapointing, lots of stormes in the area, but all were too far south, or north of my immeadiate area. I tried about 60 times or so, any where from 25 seconds to about a minute or so of an open shutter, but still that was my only "good" one. Maybe tonight will be better.
