Catching Lightning in a Bottle, well…Camera
Cameras have been capturing moments since they were invented back in 1816, and they have come a long way since. Now everyone has one in their pockets to catch special moments. This person caught one of those such moments when he photographed lightning striking behind three houses.
He had a rolling shutter on his phone that came up as a bar and overexposed a third of the photo. It left us with an amazing photo and something to awe at whenever we look at it.
Luck of the Irish?
Four-leaf clovers are supposed to be lucky right?! Well, apparently not for this woman because the moment she went to photograph her discovery her boyfriend decided to throw a frisbee in her direction. This photo catches the seconds before it makes an impact, and we hope for her sake she saw it coming in time.
That would be the worst thing to have happened right after you find a rare piece of nature. She might question her luck if this happens the next time she finds one.
Photobombed by a Pickpocketer
We can remember walking around a concert and photobombing other people’s photos. It’s fun and gives the owners something to laugh about when they go through their pictures later that day.
We don’t know if these women were laughing when they got robbed, but they probably did when they caught their pickpocketer red-handed in a selfie they took. Luckily they got everything back, and the cops easily tracked down the man with the help of the selfie.
This One Takes the Skate
Not many photos make us flinch when we see them, but this one did. The timing of the photographer was perfect and makes it feel that the board is coming straight for us. We hope the cameraman wasn’t hurt while taking the photo, but we appreciate his dedication to his art.
We know if it was us we would have bailed as quickly as the person trying the trick. Luckily, they are not us and we are now graced with this gem of a photo.
She Dug that Pass
You can see the terror in her eyes as she realizes her mistake. She completely misjudged the serve and now it is on a collision course with her face. We are glad the photographer had quick fingers and captured the moment right before it makes contact with the player.
There is so much emotion wrapped up in this still, and we can almost feel the sting on our faces just looking at this photo.
