I have seen some of the amazing photos of lightning and always been impressed. I have always wanted to take a photography course and buy a really nice camera with all the fancy settings to I could take some of those shots. But last week during a thunderstorm I saw my niece out in the rain with her iPhone held up in the air. A few minutes later she comes in and shows me this:
What amazing shots! Apparently she had used an app: Video 2 Photo that allows the user to shoot video and then pull images from the video. at $1.99 it's pretty affordable and while you are there take a look at related apps that do all kinds of more amazing things with photos and videos.
This one in particular looks very useful for capturing images that would be difficult or impossible to get otherwise. I think of sporting events and science experiments especially where capturing the moment the ball drops or the second the candle snuffs out would be exceedingly difficult with even an exceptional camera, but capturing it with video and then extracting the frame needed could be great.
