Description

There is a really good story hiding behind this photo. I was going back to my home. It was late... The wind was going crazy and yet I didn't know what was going on. I couldn't predict what was about to happen. Then I saw some lightning strikes far away and I knew it will be one hell of an opportunity to get some nice good shots. I recharged my battery and went out. I had a tripod, umbrella and my beloved camera. I was trying to get the best shot possible so I was going further and further until I found a good spot. Then I though that there is a small pond nearby. "Why won't I use it?" - I thought. And I did. The wind was getting stronger and stronger and I could feel single droplets hitting me. Soon the wind was far too powerful for my umbrella to withstand. I thought that I would make two more exposures and then run back home, because I was getting frightened, really. On my way back home I made some bonus photos though they weren't that great. The rain was slowly getting intense. When I got back home I was all wet and lightning bolts were raging just above my head...
