Lightning at the Vineyard

dsc_3991-2

My first lightning shots…I got lucky.  I put my Nikon D300 with 70-200 2.8 lens on the tripod, focused on infinity and held the shuuter down until a few strikes hit.  Then I got tired of pressing the shutter, so I just left it open, drank some wine and went over and pressed it again every couple minutes.  This photo was exposed for 112secs…  DP — your turn.  You got some lightning?

    Nice shot!

    What was your ISO on this one? Did you have any trouble with noise when viewing the image at 100%? (I’m sure you’ll tell me Nikon’s don’t produce noise but be honest here man!)
