The Wonders of Mallorca: Natures Show

The Wonders of Mallorca: Natures Show
After a long warm day at Deia we are treated to one of nature’s wonders in the late evening. This taken from our hotel looking across the bay at Port de Sóller. The PiP is one of the many others I took at the same time, all hand-held?, and shows the captured lightning streak but unfortunately a blurred foreground.

(Recently a contender in our September SPC ‘Weather Phenomena’ competition. www.ipernity.com/group/2249054/discuss). Please get involved if you are not already.

Enjoy full size.

Super Image Herb pity you did not increase the ISO to get a fast shutter but still excellent.

Ah yes, I noticed that just after I had taken them -I think? On the other hand, I might simply have left it low in order to use a slower shutter speed to try and capture the lightning as seen in the PiP shot. I have a feeling that I had my mono-pod with me at that time which explains the quality of this one despite the long 1.3 sec exposure. - Anyway -glad you liked em.

Cheers, Herb

Thanks Isabel. I agree these things can be very difficult. Fortunately it was still dry as I took these. Warm too.

Splendid location of the hotel that allows to see the bay, the city as a nativity scene and wonderfully lit and, in this case, this stunning and peculiar phenomenon of summer in the south
Superb, Herb

Hi again Judite. We picked the hotel for its unique wonderful location. these photos where actually taken form the front hotel balcony not our own. A wonderful night of natural fireworks here, quite unknown to us in the North of the UK.

Keep safe. Herb

Thanks Rosa and glad you enjoyed this one. yes our hotel was in a great place. this taken from the hotel 'cafe' veranda overlooking the sea. Our own small balcony was more limiting :)
