8. Observing and Photographing Blue Lightning
For storm chasers and photographers, catching blue lightning on camera is an arduy but worthwhile task. It’s a sought-after topic as lightning’s transient character and the particular conditions needed for blue colouration define it. One must take safety precautions, time, and camera settings into account if one is to effectively capture blue lightning.
Often used long-exposure methods help to raise the possibility of catching a blue lightning strike. Filters can also help photographers increase the blue tones or lower interference from other light sources. Usually occurring at night storms or at great altitudes, such as aircraft or mountaintops, the best chances for seeing and capturing blue lightning present itself.
