2009.07.16, somewhere in middle-Austria
This one was a once-in-a-lifetime shot. We were heading to Zell am See on the way home from Schwangau when a huge, but seemingly local storm approached. I did not have the time to mess with the tripod, as the lights were changing very fast. We just stopped at the first opportunity, I've jumped out of the car with my set of GNDs and the normal zoom. VR-II, ISO and almost open aperture did the exposure, my left hand did the filtering... I was actually suprised how well and realistic (compared to the actual scene we saw) the shot turned out! The only thing that bugs me is the tree that's blocking the house in the foreground... I couldn't help about that, sorry.
