Sparks at Sparks

In the Oregon Cascade mountains, near my home sits one of the most scenic lakes in the world, Sparks Lake. On this occasion I tracked a thunderstorm that happened to drift directly into the middle of my composition during a 5 minute exposure. The lightening struck right down the middle in the last 1 minute of the 5 minutes! The rosy colors behind the mountain on the right (Broken Top) are due to a gigantic forest fire raging far in the distance behind. As always, I make my full time living leading adventure workshops all over the planet and teach all things post production, including teaching via Skype Screen Sharing and my various Photoshop Training Videos. Everything can be found at my WEBSITE. Feel free to follow me on FACEBOOK if you so choose. Great light to you! :) via MarkMetternich http://500px.com/photo/83960793
