Flickr Blog: Woman gets struck by lightning.
July 16, 2008
Because you insisted, here’s the unedited screaming version. I also added video from a minute before the lightning struck so you can get an idea of how hard it was raining. From what i understand, it went through my left hand holding the camera, crossed my back and exited out of my right hand holding onto the metal railing. No entry or exit wounds, just a really good zap!
Seriously. Wow. Here’s the original post:

(Unfortunately, WordPress hasn’t caught on to Flickr’s video posting yet, so you’ll have to click the link to see the video. =P)

Update: If you’d like to try this effect yourself, here are some great tutorials:
- The Orton Effect - PCIN Tip of the Week (Photoshop Elements 5)
- How to duplicate the Orton Effect in Paint.Net (Paint.NET)

I just saw a great photo in egazelle’s photostream that had been modified with something called the “Orton Effect“, so I was eager to try it out myself. This is the result. What do you think?
