"I have always been fascinated by photographs about lightnings. While it is relatively easily to put a lightning strike in any photograph using image editing techniques :) I still prefer the real thing. Since photography is a hobby of mine, I wanted to be able to photograph lightnings. However, when I tried to do it without any specialized equipment, I didn't have much success."
Or, y'know, you could just install CHDK.
it's totally rockbox for your digital camera. This makes me want to go buy a digital camera.
I give a lecture to MBAs that is largely focused on CHDK. I've been doing it for three or four years. Nice to see that the NYT found out about it this last year.
