I took this photo in Orange Beach, Alabama, yesterday, standing on the balcony of our condo and watching an ocean storm. I had been brushing my hair when my little brother ran in, knowing I had been hoping for some storm photos, and told me to grab my camera. I was able to snap this really cool shot by putting my camera's settings on "fireworks" mode, which is a slightly longer exposure time. It's hard staying still enough to capture a shot on that exposure time, without a tripod!
