very nice shot
5/5

~ Quebecois   I really like the uncropped version. Excellent.

~ benek   this is a cracking shot. I have always wonder how people take so crisp pics of lightning? do you get your camera and wait. and you need to be real quick to spot one and click.

spot on!

~ truly_ani   yea basically set up the camera on a tripod and set the lowest iso and try to balance the shutter and appeture. so when i started it was still light out and i was doing 2 secs @ 13F, but then as it got darker i went longer to 10 secs @ 8F. I also have a wireless remote so i just set it to keep on taking contineous pictures. but you have to keep on clicking cause you never know when its gonna strike!

~ Marianna   Loads of lightning and thunderstoms here this afternoon too, luckily I was at work and not on the road, it was nasty.

great capture.

~ mats   I love trying to get good lightning shots. Tricky, frustrating, but totally worth it when you get something as great as this. Well done!

~ slowfade   Ace. Worth every click.

~ wingpig   Great shot. It only takes one to make it worth it in the end.

~ thechoirvandal   Wonderful! Very dramatic.
