I decided to try my hand at some daylight photography tonight. It didn't go so well. Especially using a point and shoot camera (damnit I miss my DSLR) I didn't have any control over the f-stop. I could control the shutter speed slightly (varying between 1/30, 1/25, 1/15 and 1/5") and the ISO, but without the f-stop I was doomed from the get go.

I did manage to get 5 shots (click to enlarge if you can't see them in the thumbnails) of lightning, so it wasn't a total loss. These were all taken on the southwest entrance at Lake Cunningham. It's been a couple of years since I've been here, nice to see that they've filled the lake up with water, again.
