Driven by an incredible desire to photograph lightning, Vladimir set up his camera and tripod by the window of the Banski Dvor, adjusted the shutter speed to 10 seconds with a 2-second interval between each shot, and let the camera work autonomously.

"I used a Nikon Z7 II, Nikkor 14-24mm, f/2.8, 10s, ISO100. If you're interested in night photography or need advice, feel free to contact me. Also, for those I promised a treat if I managed to capture lightning, here it is," said Tadić.

Vladimir, a mechanical engineer and prominent photographer, promotes the natural beauty of our country.

He also specializes in astrophotography, timelapse photography, aerial photography and videography, as well as sports, portrait, and product photography.

His journey into photography began in 2017 when he won awards in photo contests with his phone pictures. He has since had several exhibitions both domestically and internationally, showcasing the natural wonders of Republika Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
