and despite the simple lawn chair, and the simple dress, and the bare feet, and all that, there is something majestic about her, like she is a Dutch princess vacationing incognito somewhere in Texas :).

a very unusual and interesting miniplanet! I wish there was more continuity in exposure, and the sharp break at 3 o'clock throws me off a bit.

Originally posted by Zoomdak: Awesome shot! Congrats on the yellow. Originally posted by LevT: Basically, half the time was wasted, and I missed a few good bolts because of that. Then I realized that if the previous shot came in empty (no lightning), I can avoid wasting valuable time by turning the camera off and then immediately back on - this interrupts the noise reduction routine. Maybe this tip can help someone in similar circumstances... ...Or you could get a 5d Mark II where you can shoot the next picture while the previous image is still processing. =)

I don't have a Canon, but I cannot imagine how this might work - because the NR in Nikons is spent not on image processing, but on recording an image with exactly the same settings as the original shot (same ISO and exposure), but with a closed shutter and then subtracting it from the original image. So while the camera is acquiring a 15-sec noise-only image it cannot take another shot.
