However, when I saw the lightnings and the awesome clouds, I started to rejoice and took out my camera and tripod and set up for long exposure, hoping to catch the lightnings in a few frames.  This is the result I got after over 50 shots!  Look at the curtain of rain falling down in the distance!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m happy I stayed but as the thunderstorm was getting closer, I decided not to try my luck too much in order not to end up totally fried by a lightning (my SD card wouldn&#8217;t have survived and all the photos would have been lost!
