Simple explanation. I was outside setting up the camera. I saw a flash and pushed the button really fast. This is what I got. It’s intense.
Usually, my lightning capturing method is as follows: 1. Set shutter to 10 seconds. 2. Set aperture to a narrow number. 3.Take photo after photo after photo, recording all of the lightning that happens each time the shutter is open.
This lightning happened while the shutter was opening, and lingered for a few fractions of a second afterwards. No more strikes happened during exposure for the remainder of the time that I was shooting.
