Coronado Heights Storm, April 2006

Coronado Heights Storm, April 2006 || Canon350d/EF70-200/F4L@200| 1/125s | f4 | ISO1600 | handheld

Coronado Heights in the face of an oncoming storm, part of which had already passed on to the northeast. April 2006.

The image is slightly noisy, but even at ISO 1600 the Canon Rebel XT outperforms other cameras at 400 speed. There was lightning overhead, and while I didn't feel too exposed given the trees and power pole nearby I certainly wasn't going to risk fate by extending my metal tripod for a steadier shot!
