4/22/2011 Close Lightning Strike + Thunder + Slow Motion!

The lightning bolt may actually have been overhead. It is a sort of bug that I have encountered myself where an image of the bolt appears lower than it actually is, sometimes as a double of the real one.

@dragonridley Hmm.. Maybe. My thinking was that since this was such a quick bolt (only 3 frames at 30fps), perhaps the shutter timed it just right to catch the very tail end of the first bolt as it was going away. I don't know. It could have been the electric discharge too just messing with cam. Messed up either way. I do know the 2nd frame (the solid white one) was actually that freaking bright!
