Lightning


Lightning

Got a pretty good storm this evening so I shot a video on my camera and took a screen shot of the lightning.

That is what I liked about it too. It was a video but I can slow it down, pause it and save a picture off of it. I have some neat shots of lightning but this was one of my favorites because of the sky.

You know, it is a pity I do not have a friend who will teach me such technical things. I am not enough motivated to learn how to do it by reading 50 pgs manual, lol.

Thank you for the comments, I am fascinated by storms and have only just realized how to get these kinds of pictures.

It's not very hard at all. You have to shoot a video and then play it back on Windows Live Movie Maker. Slow down the video to one of the slowest two speeds and pause it on a scene you like. Once you have it, there is a snapshot option in the menu and you can save the image. After saving the image, I convert it to a .jpg file and that is it. If you google it, there might be better instructions somewhere.
