General Info

Welcome to Lightning Smith... here you will find some of the most breathtaking and beautiful acts of nature. Lightning frozen in timeless still motion photographs. I have taken on the art of capturing Lightning for twelve years. Each photograph was captured in and around the Tampa Bay area of Florida by my self, Bill Dollinger. To capture each photograph I had to learn more about meteorology than I have about photography. I have grown a great respect for the weather in this part of the world. There's art and soul in the light shows these storms can create. I hope you will find the same beauty as I do in every unique photo.
