New lightning photography from this morning.

Today was my first real chance to put the new camera to a test for lightning photography and I still need to work on some things but for the most part the new rig worked pretty good.

I was able to get out in front of the camera for a few images with the tower lightning in Big Lake, MN and did some cool self portraits.
