Thunderstorm and Lightnings Pörtschach


strong lightnings splash

Friday, august.8: We had 'cat and dog' weather morning and it calmed down afterward but started raining hard with severe thunderstorms later in the evening.


there were harsh lightnings and rolling thunders in the sky. upon seeing lightnings as we sat at the restaurant’s balcony, i rushed to my room trying to capture at least a glimpse of the lightning. Unfortunately, i missed a lot because of my poor camera setting and how i focused my lens. essssh!! these lightnings traveled faster than me :)) i only managed to capture splash lightnings and its tail…


hmm... that are all i have of my some (boring) photographs to share...
