I don't recommend this kind of shooting for everyone, lets face it folks, its just plain stupid to photograph someone during a really bad lightening storm. I have always wanted to do a portrait of my husband to show his strength of character. Somehow this just fits him. For those who wonder, it took about 40 times to get this one. No photoshopping in the bolts. I did however lightly enhance the color and contrast. the light source is a hand held flash unit, and the camera is mounted on a tripod. Thats it.
