Lightning Video - Real or Not

[Daniel Joseph Lee]

Here are two clips that originated from me, I had to put a last project together over the last few hours in order to pass all my modules before graduation day. Whats left is a report which needs survey answers.

 

There are 2 clips in this video (probably better fullscreen -

)

 

I want you to answer, which clip you think is fake, which clip you think is real, or if you think both are fake or both are real.

 

I would also like your reasoning as such.

 

Regardless of think fake or real, I would also like an answer if you think the lightning in either or both clips looks good or bad, and why.

 

Sorry for the poor youtubedness quality.

 

To present in a 'survey format' that I can show on my report.

1. Which clip(s) do you think is/are fake?

2. Which clip(s) do you think is/are real?

3. Why do you think these clips are fake and/or real?

4. Which clip(s) look bad?

5. Why?

6. Which clip(s) look good?

7. Why?

It doesn't matter which one is real. Which one looked better, 2.

My first reaction is that clip 2 looks better.

Based on how the light filters through the clouds and the fact that the lightning is reflected in the water in clip 2, but not in clip 1.. I'd say clip 2 was the 'real' clip.
