Fascinating Study of Early Photography
....with an even more fascinating subject - Lightning! A wonderful scholarly article (with a PDF download) of early photographs of electrical storms and lightning. First photographed in 1847.....

Thanks for posting this. I recently attended a lecture about Civil War era photography. Based on what I learned at the lecture, I am amazed such clear images of lightning could be captured.
